A veterinary office was established in mid-2001 in Wicklow town to deal with, inter alia, aspects of DVO activity. This office is the responsibility of the SVI attached to the Tallaght office. All the DVO paper files for east Wicklow are held in the Tallaght office and the Wicklow office has a computer link to the Department's disease eradication network. The cattle movement monitoring system, CMMS, has also been activated in the Wicklow office and will be integrated with the animal health computer system, AHCS, currently in development.
There are two veterinary inspectors covering the east Wicklow area. While one is located in the Wicklow office and the other in the Tallaght office, both officers carry out duties in respect of east Wicklow as and when required. They both report to the SVI based in Tallaght. There are also three TAOs and one CO in the Wicklow office. The Wicklow and Tallaght offices cover the Dublin and east Wicklow areas for DVO matters.
