Dr Gabriel Scally has said he was “surprised” to see the Department of Health say his involvement in the CervicalCheck review process was at an end.

Speaking after the Irish Examiner revealed he was no longer involved, and amid accusations from Labour leader Alan Kelly that he has been “dumped”, Dr Scally made clear there is more work to be done and he is ready to do it.
