No licences have been issued for the specific treatment of cervical cancer with medical cannabis.

The Department is not aware if any of the patients currently being treated with medical cannabis in Ireland have been affected by the Cervical Check issues.

If the Deputy would like to provide more information on this matter which has come to his attention, I will be happy to provide a further response.
