Health Minister Stephen Donnelly has said he is “fully supportive” of Dr Gabriel Scally remaining involved in the CervicalCheck review, just hours after the Dáil heard he was no longer involved.

A spokesperson for Minister Stephen Donnelly told the Irish Examiner in reply to comments from Labour Leader Alan Kelly who said Dr Scally had been dumped.
