P50 IIF - CAN-01 indicator - 22 points - https://www.england.nhs.uk/publication/network-contract-directed-enhanced-service-investment-and-impact-fund-2022-23-updated-guidance/ 

P58 of main PCN DES Network Contract - https://www.england.nhs.uk/publication/network-contract-directed-enhanced-service-contract-specification-2022-23-pcn-requirements-and-entitlements/ 

PCN Early Cancer Diagnosis Support Pack Document - https://www.england.nhs.uk/publication/network-contract-directed-enhanced-service-early-cancer-diagnosis-support-pack/
