State Claims Agency: Discussion

1:30 pm

Mr. Ciarán Breen:

That became a very interesting point. We questioned towards the very end of the case whether it was the responsibility of HSE cervical screening or Ms Phelan's treating oncologist at the time? We found out, during the trial, that there was at least some discussion about that over a long period between HSE cervical screening and the particular doctor involved. Ultimately, in July 2016, I believe, the oncologist or treating clinician told Ms Phelan.
