Simon Harris (Wicklow, Fine Gael) | Oireachtas source

I cannot be jury and jury here. The Deputy asked a question as to what a review or an investigation may find. We need an investigation into the breadth of issues regarding our screening programme, and we are going to have one. I think many people acted in good faith at that time. I think many people had different views. From my reading over the last while, and I have been reading a lot about this in recent days, I think a lot of people had different views. It was clearly quite controversial and well debated. However, it is important to say, and I know the Deputy backed the screening programme, that there is no evidence to suggest that the results people are getting back from that laboratory today are more inferior than the results that they would be getting from the laboratory in Dublin. I would like to see home-grown laboratory services.
