Has Dr. Scally been to Limerick and met the staff? If he has not, it would be insane. Are there doctors present in Limerick to deal with the serious requests from women who have been affected, particularly those who have cancer, in some cases terminal cancer? I am hearing that there are no doctors there in a capacity to ring the women back. Is that not right, Mr. Connaghan? What is the total number of women affected? Is it still 209 and does the HSE expect that number to rise?
