Ahern either ‘clueless or covering up’

TAOISEACH Bertie Ahern’s Dáil performance on the cancer-screening crisis led to claims last night that he was either “clueless” or “covering up” the extent of the problem.

Mr Ahern was unable to give specific answers to a series of questions about the second review of pathology services at Cork University Hospital (CUH).

The first review was announced in May following the misdiagnosis of Rebecca O’Malley.
