Who carries out reviews of CervicalCheck screenings, under the new Patients' Rights Bill, is an important decision which remains to be made.
That's according to Carrigaline man Stephen Teap, who was involved in the campaign.
Families of women affected by the scandal have been pushing for a law to protect other patients for years.
It was agreed on Wednesday.
Stephen's wife Irene died of Cervical Cancer in July 2017 when she was just 35-year-old - before she knew she was part of the CervicalCheck Scandal.
Speaking to RedFM News, Stephen Teap says putting the bill into action will be the hardest part of the process:
"Going forward, women's Right to Access their Information is now going to be written into law, particularly in the screening programme, the Right to Have a Review. God forbid that day comes where you do get a cancer diagnosis, it is now written law that you have access to a review, but also that the review has to be fully disclosed to you. And that's something that we haven't had before. What happened to my late white in not getting access to information, or not even being told information was available for her, so this will all be prevented now with the new bill and it's great to see".
