Implications of CervicalCheck Revelations (Resumed)

9:00 am

Mr. John Connaghan:

I think the question is how quickly that information can be available. To put on the record, at 4.15 p.m. yesterday we got the breakthrough, as the Deputy described, after working behind the scenes to make sure there were no further legal barriers. There will be some caveats to that, because there always are in legal terms. I will turn to Mr. McCallion to respond on how quickly we can now begin to turn that around.
