I am asking about individual cases. I do not wish to waste time. The witnesses were asked a very specific question. I am dealing solely with a question asked on the previous occasion the witnesses were before the committee and also submitted in writing. The witnesses stated that it is possible that no medical staff may be involved in the process. The committee asked for the sample of forms sent back to CervicalCheck by the laboratory rather than a summary report on the number of tests carried out. Does CervicalCheck get a copy of results which are sent to doctors? Is the laboratory report for each patient sent to CervicalCheck? Does anybody in CervicalCheck review the forms sent back by the contracted laboratories from a medical point of view?
