'Emergency fund' to fast-track cancer drugs

"I am romantic about the NHS; I love it. All I need to do to rediscover the romance is to look at health care in my own country." Donald Berwick, MD, head of the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services.
The government has announced a £50m fund which it says will give "thousands" of very sick cancer patients access to drugs sooner.

It will mean doctors will be able to give treatments which have not been approved by the rationing body NICE.

The announcement was made at the launch of a study showing that the UK lags in providing the newest cancer drugs.
Oops.
