McGuinness reassures farmers over independent milk testing

Dairy farmers can be confident that independent milk testing in Ireland is to the highest international standard, claims Ireland East MEP Máiréad McGuinness.

Welcoming the accreditation by the Irish National Accreditation Board (INAB) of IML Milk testing laboratories in Bailieboro, Co Cavan, Ms McGuinness said this accreditation was a first in Ireland.

“IML has proven itself in the excellent results it achieves in international accuracy ring trials. The awarding of the ISO17025 confirms its position as the country’s leading milk testing laboratory,” said the Fine Gael MEP.
