Joint Oireachtas Committee on Health

CervicalCheck Screening Programme Update: Discussion

Mr. Damien McCallion:

We have data. There are thousands of people every year and abnormalities are picked up through the programme. One woman in every two days is diagnosed with cervical cancer as a result of screening through the programme. The data on the abnormalities that are picked up through cervical screening for women are published regularly.
