Regarding information for women, the CervicalCheck leaflet was presented to the committee a year ago. Has any work been done on that? In the aftermath of this, many GPs did not understand or know the limitations of the test at 70% or 80%. There was the concern that they did not relay that to their patients in the correct way. I was not aware of the limitations. The leaflet presented to us was very wordy, and no one is going to engage with it. It was essentially not fit for purpose. If it was, there would not have been as much false or ambiguous information out there. What work has been done on that information going to a woman who is in the system perhaps a girl in her leaving certificate year, who has been through the HPV vaccination programme, and moving into the contraceptive period of life? How are we communicating in a better fashion compared to what was done prior to this crisis?
