Cervical cancer meetings ‘are being spun’, says Lorraine Walsh

A key member of a committee set up to drive change in the national cervical cancer screening programme is considering quitting because she no longer has faith in it.

Lorraine Walsh said she believes she is “wasting her time” travelling to Dublin to take part in meetings of the CervicalCheck steering committee because “HSE and Department of Health officials are being selective in what they tell us”.
