Mr. Paul Reid:

In response to the last question on laboratories, I note that the German laboratory is one of a total of 41 labs. The other 40 are Irish-based and include the Enfer Group facility in Kildare. That is our strategy. Our arrangement with the German laboratory is quite competitive, allowing for the transport costs which the Deputy quite rightly mentioned. We would not have entered it if we did not need the capacity and it did not meet our competitive tests. Our agreement with that laboratory is quite competitive in terms of logistics and test turnaround times. However, 40 of the 41 laboratories are in Ireland.
