Women refused cervical audit results

CervicalCheck refused to provide information to two concerned women who directly contacted the service in 2016, it has been revealed.

The revelation is contained in a tranche of newly released documents that also show the Department of Health and HSE officials held regular meetings over the CervicalCheck scandal throughout 2016.

Serious questions have now been raised as to why the minister of health was not informed of the controversy if senior officials in his department were discussing the audits on a regular basis.
