Report suggests patients in Scotland were less likely to have access to new drugs against cancer, cancer charity has warned that a “” devastating divide”has opened between England, Scotland and Wales when it comes to access to new drugs.”

According to research by the Foundation more rare Cancers (RCFS) people in Scotland are three times less likely to have access to a cancer drug newer than their neighbours in England.

The country of Wales, patients were five times less likely to have access to treatment.

The Scottish Government said that it had concerns about the quality of data used.

Using the Freedom of Information Act, the RCF collected data of health trusts in England on the types of drugs approved through funds of drugs for cancer of the British Government.

The funds, a value of 200 m £ per year, was created for patients in England to access medicines approved by their doctors, but which have not been given the green light for a use on the NHS.

Data were then compared with the exceptional case approvals for same drugs in Scotland and Wales.

The charitable organization, said that if the access levels were the same, through the United Kingdom, and then 248 more patients might benefit each year in Scotland.

people in Scotland and Wales will want to know why their opportunities to access a medicine against cancer-extension of life are so much lower “

end of citation Andrew Wilson Rarer Cancers Foundation report said also the level of access for people in Scotland and Wales could be delivered at a price of only £ 1 per person per year.”

Andrew Wilson, Executive Director of the FRC, said: “the cancer drug Fund is good news for people in England and has already benefited thousands of patients.”

“However, a devastating gap has opened with Scotland and Wales.”

“A drug against cancer does not become less effective merely because it is required across the border.” “Or is a patient must become less urgent”.

He added: “NHS should be there when you need it most, regardless of where you live.”

“People in Scotland and Wales want to know why their opportunities to access a medicine against cancer-extension of life are so much lower than their neighbours in England”.

A spokesman for the Scottish Government said it would carefully examine the report, but had doubts about the quality of the data and findings.

She said: “three drugs contained in the report as not available in Scotland have actually been recommended for use in certain circumstances.”

“In five other cases the medicine cannot be recommended for use in Scotland because the pharmaceutical company has not made a presentation to Council the Scottish medicines Consortium.”

“We encourage the pharmaceutical companies concerned to make representations to the CMS so that their clinical and economic effectiveness can be evaluated.”

She said in Scotland a “robust, fair and transparent” arrangements for the introduction of a new licence clinically and cost-effective medicines through the Healthcare Improvement Scotland Scottish and medicines Consortium.

“There is flexibility for other factors to take into account in determining decisions and commissions can make”deprecated”available for each patient drugs in certain circumstances”, she added.

“The vast majority of requests for treatment of patients for drugs”deprecated”is approved.”

Dr. Chris Jones, Medical Director of the NHS in Wales, said that they do not see a need for a separate Drug Fund of cancer in Wales.

“We have already spent approximately £ 5 more per capita than England on the treatment of cancer,”, he said. “Even with the additional 200 m £ available in England, it is still less than what we spend per capita of Wales.”.

“It is also no guarantee that all patients who have need of a particular drug will receive even with cancer Fund.”.

He said that all new drugs clinically reputable and cost-effective by Nice or AWMSG was provided on the NHS. Additional funding was provided to assess the drug for use in Wales before Nice sees them and these would be “commonly available” to Wales in advance of England.

“Where the drugs are not approved or are pending approval, mechanisms are in place to ensure the access of patients in exceptional circumstances”, said Dr. Jones.

“It is important to note these new drugs are often initially marketed with great promise and limited evidence of the effectiveness and unfortunately does not save lives.” Some of these drugs may also have important secondary effects that can have an impact on the quality of life. »

Baha Mousa woman had died of cancer, shortly before his arrest, an investigation into the death of a receptionist of the hotel in British custody in Iraq in 2003 will clear the army of systematic torture, it is reported.

But soldiers will be charged with “close ranks” and the dereliction of duty and chain of command of the army’s criticism, the Sunday Telegraph said.

Investigation of Sir William Gage claims that troops fighting Baha Mousa to death will publish its findings in September.

The Ministry of defence said that it would carefully consider the report of the investigation.

It said more than 100 000 soldiers served in Iraq and the vast majority behaved “extraordinary courage, professionalism and decency in very challenging circumstances.”

Nevertheless, he said, the measures that led to the death of Mr. Mousa were “shameful and inexcusable”.

“Lessons have been learned and much has been done since 2003, but we look forward to the report of the inquiry and will carefully consider all the recommendations they make, he said.”

93 injuries

Mr. Mousa, with nine other Iraqis, the Haitham hotel in Basra at September 14, 2003, by members of the Lancashire Regiment of the 1st Battalion, the Queen, was arrested.

Rifles, bayonets and suspected bomb-making equipment were found at the scene. Mr. Mousa is held in a centre of temporary detention with the civilians, suspected of being an insurgent

The two father died two days after his arrest. A post-mortem examination found that he suffered asphyxiation and at least 93 injuries to his body, including fractured ribs and a broken nose.

A court martial – six month the most expensive British history – concluded in April 2007, after a military Police investigation Royal initial on the mistreatment of prisoners, including Mr. Mousa.

Six members of the QLR, now part of the regiment of the Duke of Lancaster, have been cleared abusing civilians detained, but a seventh admitted inhumane treatment. Cpl Donald Payne was imprisoned for a year and returned to the army.

In March 2008, the Ministry of defence admitted violating the human rights of detainees held in Basra.

Two months later, then the Defence Secretary Des Browne has announced the public inquiry into the death of Mr. Mousa.

Methods “conditioning”.

The investigation into the death of Mr. Mousa and the treatment of others held, chaired by player Court of appeal Judge Sir William Gage, began to hear evidence in July 2009.

He served 115 days and heard the testimony of witnesses 247, while a further 101 witnesses provided written statements.

He said British soldiers used methods “conditioning” on Iraqi prisoners as hooding, sleep deprivation and making them standing in painful stress positions.

These techniques were prohibited by the Government of the United Kingdom in March 1972, after an investigation in Northern Ireland of discovery.

The investigation has also been studied that in authority sanctioned, tolerated or ought to have known of their use in Iraq.

The Telegraph quoted an anonymous senior army officer saying: “the investigation found no evidence of systematic abuse because it was not all.”

“This is not to say that the abuse was not held but claims that there was a culture or a conspiracy to torture suspected insurgents has not been proven.”

The investigation, a cost of £ 12.5 m, will be also essential to the initial investigation into the death of Mr. Mousa, said the newspaper.

A second inquiry into allegations of abuse began in November 2010 and is scheduled to last two years. Known as the historic Iraq allegations team, it is led by a former leader of Staffordshire CID, Geoff White.

August 26, 2011 updated 09: 34 GMT economy The UK increased by 0.2% in the second quarter of 2011, the second estimate from the Office for National Statistics (ONS) confirmed.

Growth between April and June has been limited by one-off factors including the additional holiday in April for the royal wedding and the Japanese tsunami hitting the import of auto parts.

Industrial production fell by 1.6% in the quarter, but services increased by 0.5% of the production.

Over the previous year, the economy increased by 0.7%.

The ONS said that without the one-time factors, growth between April and June compared to the previous quarter could have reached 0.7%.

Growth from January to March totaled 0.5%.

At least, is worse.

The growth was confirmed to 0.2% in the second quarter, and that will be a relief of the Chancellor.

It can still argue that, although not dynamic, growth UK was before the France and the Germany between April and June.

And the Add-ons reiterated his argument that special factors such as marriage royal bank holiday removed the growth.

The challenge now is how the economy will occur in the third quarter.

Recent data from survey of manufacturing and the retail sector suggest that things have not been more easy.

During this time, the number of unemployed persons in the United Kingdom has increased from 38 000 to 2.49 million in the three months to June.

“We expect a rebound in the third quarter, purely by reason of the place after the marriage royal bank holiday in April,” said Investec Economist Philip Shaw.

“But the underlying growth in the second half prospects looks uncertain.”.

“There is a risk that the economy continues to slow.” “It is not our central view but it is a risk.”

The data used to make the second estimate of the Add-ons are less wide than usual, because its staff now work on change annual guide of the blue book to the economy.

Therefore, figures on revenues and expenditures, which are generally added to help calculate the second estimate, are not included.

First estimate of the Add-ons, which, for the second quarter of 2011, was published last month, is made simply from output.

Nick Clegg admits there are problems with how the human rights laws are interpreted Deputy Prime Minister Nick Clegg has defended the United Kingdom human rights laws, saying they have done much to protect the vulnerable and powerless.

Writing in the Guardian, he said Governments had “minimizes the importance of” and “trashed” of these laws in recent years.

However, Mr. Clegg said the Human Rights Act was often manipulated and called for a “sensible discussion” on how it should be interpreted in the future.

The conservatives want to scrap metal Act and replace it with a bill of rights.

However, in his article, Mr. Clegg rejected the repeal of the Act and said the democratic liberal position that any potential Declaration would strengthen current laws and “protect the other British freedoms, including the right to a trial by jury.”

Last week, Prime Minister David Cameron pledged to “get a grip” on the cases where the laws in force have been used inappropriately.

The Prime Minister said that people should “understand the true scope of these rights and use them not as coverage of the rules or excuses that fly from common sense”.

it is an intervention of welcome by the Deputy Prime Minister and certainly not before the date “

end of quote Shami Chakrabarti Director, freedom of agreement with Mr. Cameron, the leader of the Lib Dem said”the biggest problem”is that human right Act is sometimes” manipulated not only by the media, but by officials rides “who use it to justify their decisions.”

“It was, for example, no help to anyone when police spokesman blamed the rights of the human for a decision to offer a KFC meal to a fugitive on a roof, said Mr. Clegg.”.

Responsibilities “myth.”

But, despite this, the PM MP argues that the laws on the rights of man in the United Kingdom has done a lot of property and should be protected.

“[It has] contributed to prevent local authorities from snooping on law-abiding families, by removing the innocent of the database of national DNA by preventing rapists to cross-examine victims in court, defending the rights of parents to have its say in the medical treatment of their children.”.

Mr Clegg has also dismissed as a “myth” believes that people should lose the protection of human rights in some cases.

“[It] creates an opinion that no right, not even the most basic, come without responsibilities,” he said, and that “criminals should confiscate their humanity when they step out of line”.

The European Convention on the protection of the rights of man – including the right to a private and family life and freedom of expression – becomes directly enforceable in the courts of the United Kingdom in 2000 through the Human Rights Act.

In his article, Mr. Clegg also said that the UK would seek to reform the European Court of human rights when it takes the Presidency of the Council of Europe in November – to improve the speed and consistency of the decisions of the Court.

Activists welcomed the words of Mr. Clegg.

Liberty Director Shami Chakrabarti said: “it is an intervention of welcome by the Deputy Prime Minister and certainly not before time.”

The Free School Norwich will be based in an old building for a total of 24 new free schools established by parents, religious groups and others will be open in England next month.

Schools funded by the State but semi-indépendant mainly created in the 15 months since the entry of the ruling coalition.

Secretary for education Michael Gove explains schools will make standards, especially in the poorest regions.

But critics say they will take resources and students of other schools and cause less local accountability.

Schools will be opened in the halls of the churches, listed buildings and classrooms temporary, as well as in the former Office blocks and libraries which are being renovated.

Free schools program was one of the flagship conservative policies in the last election.

Approximately half of the schools of initiation only next month signed their final contract with the Government in recent weeks, although their plans and their works have been advanced and children had been recruited.

There were requests from 323 groups.

A total of 17 new schools are the primary colours, five are secondary and two are schools “all – age”.

Eight are in London, with eight others in other parts of the South of England, three in the midlands and five in the North.

Some of the schools are established by Academy trusts or strings – groups that are already behind several academies in England.

by releasing teachers and trust to local communities to decide what is best, our reforms will help to raise standards for children in schools “

end Quote Michael Gove Secretary of education academies are similar to the free schools in that they are also funded directly by central Government (as all schools in the State will be under the planned changes)”sit outside local authority control, and have more control over pay and conditions of staff than other schools.

The Government says that half of new free schools are in disadvantaged areas. Some critics of free schools program have stated that they will be implemented and used primarily by the middle classes.

Mr. Gove, said: “the most important thing for any parent must be able to send their children to a good school, with high standards and strong discipline.” This is why we are opening free schools across the country. I am very pleased to announce that the first 24 will open this year.

“Too many children are defeated by fundamental defects in our education system.” The lower schools are concentrated in our cities and poorest villages, and we are in free fall in the international education league tables.

“By releasing teachers and communities local confidence to decide what is best, will our reforms help to raise standards for children in schools.”

The Government also gave details on the amount of money that he is expected to cost of capital, on buildings for the first 24 free schools.

He explains the current estimates this to between 110 m £ 130 million of £.

Originally it had set aside £ 50 m in capital funding, when the policy was announced. He says that this amount was free schools in 2010-2011.

Most schools will start in temporary accommodation, on and off their permanent sites.

There is a shortage of places of primary school in London and the Midlands and the Government hopes that these new schools will alleviate this problem.

“Reckless experience.”

Strong opposition to the new free schools comes from some of labour and Liberal Democrat MPs, and the trade unions of education, who say that they will take resources and students of other schools and destabilize the system.

Chris Keates, General Secretary of the NASUWT teaching union, describes the program of the free schools as a”reckless with the future of children and young people”.

“There is no evidence that the model of free school raises standards, but nothing abroad, including in Sweden, where there are huge concerns,” she said.

“Free schools were selective and socially divisive – and there is no evidence that they have raised standards”.

The Government said the movement of Charter schools we is close to its program of the free school and that, in Chicago and New York, the Charter schools contributed to the gap in achievement between rich and poor students.

More applications for free schools are in the pipeline.

Foreign Secretary William Hague person never has been charged in the death of PC Yvonne Fletcher outside the Libyan Embassy the Libya Transitional Council has promised to cooperate in the investigation of UK police on the death of PC Yvonne Fletcher 27 years, said.

It is on as a member of the Board, said the Sunday Times, recently identified a suspect would not be delivered.

PC Fletcher was shot during a demonstration at the Embassy of Libya in London.

The National Council of transition is now recognized by Britain as the only government authority for the Libya.

The Sunday Times reported that Libyan officials would not give a suspect.

Member NTC Hassan al-Sagheer was quoted by the paper as saying: “Libya was never extradited or handed over to its citizens of a foreign country.”

“We will continue with this principle.

Since the murder of Pc Yvonne Fletcher in 1984, his parents and other activists have fought for justice.

Hopes have been raised as a suspect has been named as Abdulmagid Salah Ameri, which was a junior diplomat at the time of the shooting.

The NTC will clearly have some immediately pressing issues to be addressed first – security, power, ensure water supply.

And with the Gaddafi that moved still unknown is how easy it will be to find a former junior diplomat?

Although the killer of Pc Fletcher cannot be brought to justice quickly after the fall of the regime of Kadhafi, there was perhaps hoped that after more than a quarter of a century someone may finally be convicted of the murder.

The Sunday Times report came a day after the Daily Telegraph claimed that a report to the Crown Prosecution Service included an account of witness claiming that the shooter was junior diplomat Abdulmagid Salah Ameri.

Mr Hague told the BBC: “it is an ongoing police investigation and it is quite difficult for me to comment on.”

“But I would say that when…”. [Mustafa Abdul] Jalil, the President of the National Council of transition has been with us in London in may, has committed itself and the Council to cooperate fully with the British Government on these issues. »

He added: “I would have to take what was written in the press today is the last word on the subject.”.

Mr. Menzies Campbell, former Lib Dem leader said that he doubted that the suspect would have handed over and felt a Scottish Health two years ago on the same subject Abdelbaset Ali al-Megrahi, the controversial Lockerbie bombing released from the beginning.

William Hague: I wouldn’t take that has been written in the press today is the last word on the question

Scottish officials have tried to contact Megrahi follows the rebel advance to Tripoli last week.

Technically, Megrahi remains a Scottish prisoner released under license and is obliged to remain in regular contact with East Renfrewshire Council.

There were calls for him to be returned to prison to the United Kingdom, including Deputy Prime Minister Nick Clegg, who said that he would like to see Megrahi back behind bars.

The Ministry of Foreign Affairs said it is “ready to help” Scotland Yard detectives investigating the death of Pc Fletcher visit Libya as soon as conditions permit.

Person was ever charged with murder of PC Fletcher. While the shots that killed him fired inside the Embassy, the staff of the Libyan claimed diplomatic immunity and were deported.

Fix August 28, 2011: an earlier version of this story quoted statement of William Hague that there was no extradition treaty with the Libya. In place is a treaty, but the Libyan law prohibits the extradition of its own citizens.
