answer text <p>The NHS Cancer Programme is working to improve access to cancer nurse specialists (CNSs) for all cancer patients when they need it, including those with secondary breast cancer.</p><p> </p><p>We are committed to rolling out the recovery package to every cancer patient by 2020. The recovery package is a set of four interventions designed to help patients and clinicians assess a patient’s holistic needs, including physical and emotional needs, at appropriate time points through their cancer journey, as needs do change especially when a person is diagnosed with secondary cancer. A personalised care and support plan to meets these needs should be agreed, ensuring signposting and referral to the right support and care services is made, and also helping to empower patients to independently manage their own health, with advice and support.</p><p> </p><p>NHS England is committed to giving more patients access to a CNS or other specialist from diagnosis onwards to guide them through treatment options and ensure they receive appropriate information and support. In their first Cancer Workforce Plan, which was published in December 2017, Health Education England committed to supporting the expansion of CNSs by developing national competencies and a clear route into training. This will ensure that every patient has access to a CNS or other support worker by 2021.</p>

answer text <p>​The Government condemns the atrocities that have taken place in Rakhine including the violence committed against children. The Foreign Secretary made clear to Burma's State Counsellor Aung San Suu Kyi in their meeting of 20 September that holding to account those responsible for atrocities was of critical importance. The UK co-sponsored the UN Human Rights Council Resolution of 27 September that established a mechanism to collect and preserve evidence of human rights violations in Burma for use in future prosecutions. The UK ensured the Head of the UN Fact Finding Mission was invited to brief the UN Security Council on 24 October. The UK will continue to look at accountability options and work with our international partners to support those assisting victims and building evidence.</p> more like this

answer text <p>​At this highly sensitive time in the region, there is an urgent need to restart the peace process between Israelis and Palestinians. After the recent outbreak of violence, I called for everyone to step back from the brink and to avoid escalating the situation further. We continue to urge restraint from all parties and welcome the return to calm in recent days. We strongly support the mediation efforts of the international community led by Egypt and the UN and urge continued talks aimed at finding an enduring peace in Gaza under the control of the Palestinian Authority. We regularly press both parties to resume direct negotiations towards a two-state solution. I last discussed the Middle East Peace Process with the Israeli Ambassador to the UK on 11 October.</p> more like this

Staff employment patterns and customer service are both operational matters of commercial judgement for Post Office management team.
