Seán Fleming: Where was Dr. O'Keeffe's concern for the patients during this time? We have heard that processes, policies and procedures were in place. Not once did she refer to the patients. All I heard from that last paragraph was about consultants, procedures, protocols, policies and open disclosure. I have not heard about the patient. Is there a reference to the patient in the report on which Dr....

Dr. O'Keeffe was aware that the fear of litigation was a real factor in...

Seán Fleming: This was brought to her attention in a special meeting in February 2016 and then the first she knew about the outcome of that whole process was when she heard about Vicky Phelan two years and two months later. I call Deputy Kelly. I am sorry for that interjection. I do not want to take up his time.

Seán Fleming: Perhaps Professor Kerri Clough-Gorr could come in with her perspective on the overall national number of cervical cancers. She should speak to the microphone and not mind who is behind it. It is hard not to make eye contact. It is a case of active versus passive registration.
