It is an affiliate of a similar organisation in the USA. We are campaigning in the UK to influence Government to increase the number of diseases we test for at birth. Currently we test for only 5. Do you think that you could let me have the full list of the 30 diseases that you currently test for? Also could you let me know where the laboratory is that does the tests in Australia. I am in Perth between 11th December 2008 and 2nd February 2009. Can you suggest anyone that I might meet with sometime during that period to talk about newborn screening in Australia. Thank you in advance for your assistance.
