Good. There are sick kids today in Crumlin, Temple Street and Tallaght hospitals whose parents are sleeping on the floor. In the new hospital every child will have a single room which will be en suite, which will be great for infection control and in ensuring basic family decency when people have to spend weeks and months in hospital. That is the first point. The second is that whereas we now have 14 theatres, there will be 22 in the new hospital. That represents a very significant increase in theatre capacity to look after sick kids.
