Following Dr Scally and Dr Denton's appearance at the Joint Committee on Health in October, there has been continued engagement between Dr Scally, his team and the HSE. The HSE advises that as part of this engagement it has addressed queries relating to the audit, and I understand that there are no outstanding queries at this point.

In relation to the specifics of how the 190 cases relate to the 221 women who were identified as part of the CervicalCheck audit, I have asked the HSE to respond directly to the Deputy on that matter.
