Public Accounts Committee

Implications of CervicalCheck Revelations (Resumed)

9:00 am

Mr. John Connaghan:

The Chair has made a very good point. If there is something that a witness has provided in evidence which is unclear to the committee or where the witness subsequently realises that he or she has been talking at cross-purposes with a meeting that happened a year before, it is good practice that we are more proactive in terms of writing to the committee to explain matters.

It would be good practice to be more proactive in writing to the committee to explain things. That is something we need to take on board.
