National Paediatric Hospital Development Board Fund: Finance Statements 2013

Mr. Tom Costello:

There were mitigating circumstances at the time as well whereby Dublin City Council, DCC, had said that in cases of exceptional architecture, it could look at height over and above the development plan limit of seven storeys. That was not entirely clear. Again, our lesson learned from that is no matter how brilliant the architecture is, stick to the rules. If one does so, one is far more likely to be successful.
