1168. To ask the Minister for Health the reason many women received appointment letters from Breast Health in the Mater Hospital for Friday, 20 October 2023, only to discover upon turning up for the appointment that the Breast Health system recorded the appointment date as Friday, 27 October, and was not expecting them for another week; the number of women affected by the issue; if he will apologise to the women in question for the distress caused to them as they awaited biopsy results; and if he will make a statement on the matter.
