Joint Oireachtas Committee on Health
Supplementary Report of Scoping Inquiry into CervicalCheck Programme: Discussion
Michael Harty (Clare, Independent) | Oireachtas source
Dr. Scally may tell me this is not a fair question, but I would like to put it to him anyway. In a recent judgment, Mr. Justice Cross spoke about absolute confidence in the reading of smears and stated that if there is any doubt in the mind of the smear reader, it should not be deemed a normal smear. Does Dr. Scally have any comment on how that will be viewed? I am aware that the judgment is under appeal and I am not asking Dr. Scally to comment on the case. How does the term "absolute confidence" fit into-----
