Regarding the CervicalCheck scandal that broke last week, I tabled a parliamentary question to ask how many women will get a notification to return for a repeat smear test. The reply I received today asked me to clarify whether I was referring to the small number in 2018 or whether I wanted to get the numbers for 2015. I would think it was pretty obvious I was looking for last year's numbers. Specifically, how many women are going to get a notification to return and when will the backlog be cleared? Currently, the wait time for a woman getting a smear test today is beyond six months; it used to five weeks. When is the Government going to fix it?

I can understand the need for answers to those questions. The Minister will be in the House next week making statements and answering questions on this issue.

That concludes Questions on Promised Legislation. I am sorry seven Deputies were not reached.
