To be honest, I took at face value what the Minister said on the day I met him. I believed that he would roll it out quickly. I will ask one question before pointing out another issue relating to BreastCheck. How many women in the final quarter will be able to avail of the free BreastCheck exam?

A serious matter was drawn to my attention by a woman at the weekend. She is not able to avail of the service because it has not yet been rolled out for her age group. She was also under the impression that the service would be rolled out.
