Question
To ask the Scottish Government what impact it considers the resignation of two medical mesh-injured members of the Independent Review of Transvaginal Mesh Implants has had on the balance of the group.
Answer
The resignation of the two members was unfortunate, has caused me concern, and I plan to meet with Ms McIlroy and Ms Holmes shortly in order to properly understand their reasons for resigning. I am, however, aware that Ms McIlroy and Ms Holmes have contributed much to the Review over the past three years and would hope that this is reflected in the Review’s final report.
