Joint Oireachtas Committee on Health

Quarterly Update on Health Issues: Discussion

9:00 am

Mr. Tony O'Brien:

I believe the serious incident management team, SIMT, has probably uncovered all there is to uncover, although I cannot give an absolute guarantee because the team's work is still in progress. I am not aware of any significant issues that are not in the public domain through the SIMT reporting process, in which there are daily updates.

The totality of the organisation I lead includes CervicalCheck and it is clear there was knowledge within that organisation to the effect that it was not receiving National Cancer Registry of Ireland data and, consequently, that the figure of 1,482 did not include other cancers which occurred in that period.
