Today I have escalated my case & asked Robert Watt Secretary General
@roinnslainte
to meet me no one will ever know the level of disrespect I have been shown since speaking up about
#cervicalcheck
delays and how serious issues have been simply ignored and refusal to investigate

4,088 women affected by delays up to 8 months were followed up after I received email from
@roinnslainte
the day the final report was published by
@GabrielScally
- they then advised small number of women receiving “continuous care” by the lead clinician - what does this mean ?

Seems to a regular occurrence with government bodies I was told no minutes taken at
@roinnslainte
meeting with
@DonnellyStephen
regarding incorrect information on knowledge of delays in
#cervicalcheck
report - told weeks later it was just a “listening exercise”
Forgot to take minutes over a dozen times with a big property developer, forgot who put up his posters, forgot to declare donations, forgot he was a director of a company run by Varadkar’s former advisor… & that’s just the stuff we know. He should resign.

@MichealMartinTD
@LeoVaradkar
Fully agree
@walls2
the recommendations of the MacCraith report were also to be aligned with the Scally report -awaiting update from

For most people who have been done wrong, the important thing is acknowledgement … our government fights the very people affected, they need to put things right so people can move on with respect & care

I’m still waiting the final report on the McCraith report on

despite being repeatedly told it was aligned with the

report, I was then told it wasn’t and would be published in the New Year it’s

about how the MacCraith report was aligned to the final Scally Report - assured in March 2021 by

it was completely aligned and another email from

There are still serious questions to be asked he was not vindicated as he makes out
@LeoVaradkar
It's long past time somebody in the Dáil asked
#LeoVaradkar
whether, as incoming Taoiseach, he considers himself bound by the Official Secrets Act.
If he does not, the Dáil should reject his nomination for the post.
Because the answer is yes, he is bound

@LeoVaradkar
This should never have happened he admitted sharing a confidential document with a friend and then investigation by DPP a joke & vote by SIPO a disgrace …. All this tells him is carry on doing whatever you like and no consequences

It’s almost a year since I told my story in the MacCraith report and one of the main recommendations was to put Women First - I call on
@SimonHarrisTD
@paulreiddublin

to announce when Cervical Check & all cancer screenings will return - this needs to happen now

What the hell were you thinking
@Independent_ie
?
To put his name in the same sentence as
@PhelanVicky
is a gross insult & one which merits an editorial apology, something incidentally which Dr Holohan has yet to give the victims of the
#cervicalcheck
scandal.

This is horrific - a woman let down by our state and her family have to deal with mediation in her final days -
@LeoVaradkar
@SimonHarrisTD
@MichealMartinTD
@DonnellyStephen
@BernardGloster
- this needs to be sorted you made promises, keep them

Mediation talks begin in case of dying woman who claims smear slides misreported
Justice Paul Coffey exhorted parties, which includes Health Service Executive (HSE) and laboratories, to bring the talks to a successful conclusion.
