When the witnesses visited in January, MedLab said it was accredited. Subsequently, through what was explained earlier, which I will digest, we found out that it was not accredited. Who told INAB that it was not accredited? The accreditation for the Sandyford laboratory is dated to 23 October 2018. INAB visited it on 17 April. Its subsequent accreditation, which is for Sandyford and Salford, is dated 30 May. Dr. Scally's report came out subsequent to that. I want to fill in the gap between the witnesses' visit in January and INAB's visit on 17 April. Who told INAB? Someone had to tell it because INAB did not know that the Sandyford laboratory existed.
