Ms Valerin O'Shea:

No. It is presented to us as an ideal site. The size of the site was increased following the initial reports drawn up on the various hospitals. That made a real difference. The fact that the Rotunda Hospital is moving to that site makes it a tri-location and that is considered the optimum by everybody.

Dr. Breathnach will respond to the questions about Great Ormond Street Hospital and whether there is room at the St. James's site for the new maternity unit and whether it would be a high-risk maternity unit.
