My Department's offices on the north side of Dublin are as follows: Horticulture Inspector's office, Bow Street, Dublin 1; Horticulture Inspector's office, Swords; Border inspection post, Dublin Port; Border inspection post, Dublin Airport; and Abbotstown laboratories and farm.

My Department's laboratories situated in Abbotstown are in the process of being transferred to Backweston, County Kildare. It is proposed that the farm situated in Abbotstown will be replaced by a farm at Longtown, Clane. Neither of these relocations are taking place under the decentralisation programme.

My Department's offices situated at the other locations mentioned above will be retained in their present locations.
