Joint Oireachtas Committee on Health
National Children's Hospital: Discussion (Resumed)
Ms Fionnuala Duffy:
I will provide the estimates and we can follow through with the detail. As Ms Conroy outlined, it has always been intended that €20 million philanthropy funding would form part of the capital contribution. We are now incorporating an additional €130 million philanthropy funding. In addition, philanthropy funding will be used for the children's education and research centre, the cost of which is estimated at €18 million. That is an estimate because it is not Exchequer-funded and has not commenced. It will be sourced from non-Exchequer funding.
