Amharc ar fhreagraMy Department is working in partnership with the Office of Public Works to develop detailed proposals for a redevelopment programme of the Regional Veterinary Laboratory network.
Under current proposals the development of the laboratory facilities in Sligo is scheduled for the second phase.
Ultimately, the pace and scheduling of these proposals will be determined by the availability of capital funding and the range of other demands on the Vote, through the normal budgetary processes.
