Mr. Tony O'Brien:
Yes, and it has always been my view that the central issue here, apart from the obviously tragic situation that individual women face when they go on to experience a diagnosis of cervical cancer, which is a very adverse diagnosis, was the failure to follow through on a plan to communicate results with women. That was the central failure in the programme.
