Women affected by the CervicalCheck controversy are to receive €20,000 each. The payments will apply to women affected by the non-disclosure of the CervicalCheck audit. The Minister for Health Simon Harris had asked an independent panel to set the compensation level. In the coming days, the CervicalCheck Tribunal Bill is due to be published. The Tribunal will hear and determine claims arising from the clinical audit, in particular regarding the reading of smears.
