Dr. Tony Holohan:

On page 1 of the first memorandum, the third paragraph after the heading "Current Status" in the middle of the page states, "... the Programme commenced the formal step of communicating cytology review findings arising from the clinical audit to the treating clinicians looking after individual women diagnosed with cervical cancer." I would not have concluded from that the patients would not hear. I would have concluded the opposite. I know there has been a dispute among clinicians which we would not have been aware of at the time. I would have understood this to have been something like radiology so radiologists would give findings back to a clinician who is looking after a patient and it is explained to a patient in the context of their care.
