Women were having smears taken in Ireland. They were supposed to be sent to Sandyford. INAB is in charge of accreditation to ISO standards, independently of the HSE. Somehow a laboratory was operating and testing women's smears in Manchester without accreditation and INAB never noticed when it was auditing. There is no purpose to the audit if INAB cannot see what is right in front of it, especially when it continues for such a long time. It continued for three years. What is the point of auditing a company if the auditing body does not find anything when it goes in? Does INAB have records on its annual audits?
