Joint Oireachtas Committee on Health

CervicalCheck Screening Programme Update: Discussion

Mr. Damien McCallion:

I would have to check the grade. The pathology gap is something that Dr. Scally said the programme needed to strengthen. We have moved to secure someone and that person has started in that role. That will mean, going forward, that we have that extra experience and senior-level input to the quality assurance process of the laboratories.
