Supplementary Report of the Scoping Inquiry into the CervicalCheck Screening Programme: Statements
7:20 pm
Simon Harris (Wicklow, Fine Gael) | Oireachtas source
I said to Deputy Kelly that the audit would be re-established by the national screening service. In the interests of clarity, I should have said an internal expert group on cancers is looking at that. I want to correct the record in that regard.
In response to Deputy Bríd Smith, that has been done by clinical experts. I do not believe it has been done by the Royal College of Obstetricians and Gynaecologists, as it is a separate process. There is a draft report. The patient representatives have had an opportunity to see that, which is important. I expect it to be published in the next few weeks and I will make sure it is published before this House rises for the summer recess.
