Follow-up care after breast cancer treatment

What we are doing here is discussing the subject matter of that bill, but I want to ask you specifically about the proposals under that bill — as I understand it, there are three — that would require the federal government to identify information gaps pertaining to breast density in the context of cancer screening, to identify approaches for improving the provision of information to women to address the challenges of detecting breast cancer and dense issue, to raise awareness about those challenges and to share information via the Canadian Breast Cancer Screening Initiative about identifying dense breast tissue during screening and wheth ...[+++]er there are follow-up measures to be taken.

Some witnesses suggested that implementation of the clauses of this bill, which, they argued, would impose vague requirements on the federal government generally and on the Canadian Breast Cancer Screening Initiative specifically, could result in mandatory disclosure of breast density information to women following their screening, without any further useful information about follow-up measures.

Finally, the bill requires sharing, through the Canadian Breast Cancer Screening Initiative, information related to practices used to identify heterogeneous or dense breast tissue during screening and any follow-up procedures that may be deemed necessary.

Bill C-314 would require the existing Canadian breast cancer screening initiative to share information on dense tissue in relation to cancer screening and any follow-up procedures.
