National Paediatric Hospital Development Board: Financial Statements 2017 (Resumed)
9:00 am
Mr. Jim Breslin:
A detailed piece-by-piece work-up was done on the equipment that forms part of the estimate. PwC flagged the fact that we are four years away from going live and there is the potential for technology change as we approach that point. However, it also identified that we will be equipping the existing hospitals. For example, we will expand the number of ICU beds in Crumlin hospital for paediatric cardiology. We will be able to move that equipment into the new hospital.
