Dr Colin Holden, president of the BAD, said: "It is important that patients with photosensitive skin eruptions are allowed to use lights that don't exacerbate their condition. Photosensitive eruptions range from disabling eczema-like reactions, to light sensitivities that can lead to skin cancer."

That is a quote that includes the word cancer. Of course, as others note, what doesn't cause cancer, it is important to know that the risk is increasing.
