CervicalCheck Tribunal: Vicky Phelan says concerns raised have been rejected by Health Minister

Ms Phelan said that CervicalCheck patient support group 221+ received a letter from Mr Donnelly's office to inform them the tribunal would begin next week at the same time as the announcement was made.

CervicalCheck campaigner Vicky Phelan has criticised the Health Minister after it was announced that the long-awaited CervicalCheck Tribunal will begin next week.

Stephen Donnelly brought a memo to Cabinet proposing Tuesday, October 27 as the start date for the tribunal which will investigate negligence in the State's cancer screening programme.
