Question:207 Mr. M. Brennan asked the Minister for Agriculture, Food and Forestry the reason a decision has been made to discontinue blood testing in the laboratory in Sligo in view of the fact that Sligo and the north west as a whole is an area from which there is a high export of cattle to Northern Ireland and Scotland and the withdrawal of this facility will mean a delay of between two and four weeks in getting test results from the Cork laboratory.
