Joint Oireachtas Committee on Health

Scoping Inquiry into the CervicalCheck Screening Programme: Discussion

9:00 am

Some people mistakenly thought that a diagnosis of cancer was being kept from some of these women, but that was never true. The review of the slides only took place in cases where there was already a diagnosis of cancer.
