dc.description	This report provides information on the provision of diagnostics for sexually transmitted infections (STIs) across Ireland. The information presented in this report was provided by laboratory services who responded to an electronic survey designed to document STI diagnostic services provided across the country. The questionnaire was circulated at the end of 2015. This report is part of a broader project that aims to document current provision of STI testing and management, STI diagnostics in laboratories and contraception services nationally. The objectives of the overall project are to: • Gather, collate and report data on provision of STI and contraception service provision nationally in relation to geographic location, public access and service availability and services provided. • Generate maps providing a visual description of the spatial distribution of public STI services nationally in line with population data and weighting for age and deprivation-related risk • Identify areas for action and report gaps in service provision to inform a sexual health needs assessment. The sexual health needs assessment will inform future service planning and resourcing	en_US
