Dáil Éireann Debate, Tuesday - 8 May 2018
282. Deputy Bríd Smith asked the Minister for Health when his attention was drawn to the scale of the failures regarding the tests conducted by clinical pathology laboratories; and when his attention was drawn to the HSE legal strategy in a case (details supplied). [19740/18]
View answerI received a briefing note in relation to a legal case which had been taken against MedLab/Clinical Pathology Laboratories Ltd, a company providing cytopathology for CervicalCheck, and the HSE on 16 April 2018.
I received further information on issues related to the communication of the outcome of the CervicalCheck clinical audit process to women in the period after that legal case became public.
I have published that briefing note and set out the information available to me on the record of the Dail on Tuesday, 1 May 2018, including during questions from the opposition.
