Question:

437 Mr. Allen asked the Minister for Health and Children the resources, if any, he will allocate to the new infectious disease centre planned for University College Dublin. [1310/00]

I am informed by the virus reference laboratory that the Centre for Research in Infectious Diseases is being financed through private fund-raising and funds contributed by University College Dublin. The Deputy may wish to know that my Department has agreed to provide capital funding of £600,000 to the virus reference laboratory towards the provision of additional laboratory facilities and the building of a molecular diagnostic unit on the Belfield site.
