Dr. Tony Holohan:

The independent clinical audit shall happen under the auspices of the Royal Hospital of Obstetricians and Gynaecologists and involve another organisation in the United Kingdom called the British Association of Colposcopists and Cytopathologists. It will have teams that will conduct an audit, starting with all of the patients about whom we know through the registration process. Through what it calls an algorithm - a series of steps - it will identify those cases that need to be reviewed, review the charts and bring the process through to the end in ordere that we can have, in broad terms, an answer for each individual. That will happen independently.
