The HSE and two US laboratories have admitted liability in the case of mother-of-two Irene Teap who died after being diagnosed with cervical cancer.

Ms Teap's husband and CervicalCheck campaigner Stephen Teap, told the court that following her diagnosis his wife had constantly asked: "How did this happen, I did everything right?" and these words continue to haunt him.
