From Morning Report, 7:47 am on 7 May 2019

Hundreds are expected to march in Wellington this morning calling on the government to fund more lung cancer medications. Five New Zealanders die from lung cancer every day and more people die from lung cancer every year than breast cancer, prostate cancer and melanoma combined. A petition will be presented to Parliament this morning by Patricia Guttenbeil Gooten beel whose husband Jason passed away last year. First Up's Indira Stewart reports.
