There was no room in today's Budget to fund the cancer drugs National promised during the election campaign.

Patient Advocacy Aotearoa's Malcolm Mulholland says he's disappointed.

"There are patients right now with terminal cancer who are waiting for these medicines to be funded - if they're not funded, to be perfectly blunt, some will die."
