To ask the Secretary of State for International Development if she will meet Karol Sikora, Chief of the WHO Cancer Programme and Professor of International Cancer Medicine, to discuss the cancer situation in Iraq. [77256]

The Department for International Development has not been asked to meet Karol Sikora, but my officials are in contact with WHO about the health care needs of Iraqi people, including cancer. Discussions are at an early stage, but we hope they will lead to a joint project.
