Joint Oireachtas Committee on Health

Update on the CervicalCheck Screening Programme: Discussion

Ms Tracey Conroy:

A sum of €5.8 million was provided this year for CervicalCheck for the broad range of issues, including €2 million for colposcopy. It is to address the pressures, including those of staffing so there are extra posts and equipment, and so on. There will be ongoing requirements in this regard.
