We understand that. Why did the programme not say 30% in the leaflet? Why did it say that there is just a small chance? Why did the programme not instruct GPs to tell women when they were having their smears that there is a 30% chance that it might not be good and that if the women were having any symptoms they should disclose them? Why did the programme not make that a priority in its communications? I have seen HSE communications in action throughout the system. It needs to get the basic communications right.
