That is a fact.
It is the case that nine women were misdiagnosed. Unfortunately, errors of this kind that happened in the past went unreviewed, unnoticed. We are not unique in Ireland in recalling patients. I refer to an article in a French newspaper which states that last week, 7,000 cancer patients were recalled for review and the Deputy is aware of this. It is not unusual.
