Minister for Agriculture and Food (Mr. Walsh) Minister for Agriculture and Food (Mr. Walsh)

Minister for Agriculture and Food (Mr. Walsh): I am aware that due to action taken by the Veterinary Officers Association, certain difficulties did arise in relation to the carrying out of non-statutory post-mortems, at the Cork Regional Veterinary Laboratory.

I understand that such post-mortems are being carried out in the normal way at present.
