MEPs adopted on 10 April 2008 a “Resolution on combating cancer in the enlarged European Union”. An overwhelming majority of MEPs voted for a strategic approach to cancer control and the creation of an EU cancer task force. Credit must go to all members of MEPs Against Cancer (MAC), to whom citizens and cancer patients are indebted for their efforts in bringing the Resolution about.
