flag Scottish Labour has pledged to tackle cancer care inequalities and reduce treatment delays ahead of the May elections, aiming to meet the unmet 62-day cancer treatment target since 2012. flag The party plans to launch a national lung cancer screening program, expand cervical cancer self-sampling, and pilot prostate cancer screening. flag Every patient would receive a named care navigator and a personalized plan covering medical, mental health, and employment support. flag Outdated scanners will be replaced with AI-powered imaging to improve diagnosis speed and capacity. flag Despite a 12.1% drop in cancer deaths since 2015, Labour says screening uptake remains low in underserved areas and blames outdated equipment and workforce strain. flag They criticize the current SNP government and promise improved community outreach to boost participation.
