Public Accounts Committee

Children’s Health Ireland and National Paediatric Hospital Development Board: Discussion

9:30 am

Mr. David Gunning:

Historically, looking back to the first half of this year and last year, BAM hit 65% or 66% of its monthly performance targets, on average. If it set out to deliver 100% in a month, it was hitting 65%. Our contention in that regard is that more resources and supervision are required to get that done. It has always been our position that there are not enough resources to get the job done.
