The analysis is with LGC which has the contract since 2018. LGC is in the UK. It was part of a tender. LGC met the criteria and provided best value in 2018. The delivery of the services under the framework has been very strong. It provides services to other authorities as well, which allows for economy of scale. There is some benefit in that from an IHRB point of view with regard to benefiting from the expertise it has. It works to the specifications set out in the International Federation of Horseracing Authorities' reference laboratory programme. However, it is outside the country.
