Joint Oireachtas Committee on Health

Scoping Inquiry into the CervicalCheck Screening Programme: Discussion

9:00 am

Dr. Gabriel Scally:

-----and sitting across the table from these women. Third, patients want to be sure that it will not happen to anyone else. Those are the three things patients want.

We have gone a long way to find out what went wrong in the system and why. I believe we have not got to the stage. It was in the media so members will be aware that I had a very long meeting last night with the women, and it is very clear that they are still very angry about the way they were treated. That will not go away without some active intervention, if it ever will. I really hope it will.
