Joint Oireachtas Committee on Health

Quarterly Meeting on Health Issues: Discussion

Mr. Liam Woods:

Subject to funding decisions, I think we would be looking at a timeline that would require some level of procurement. Clearly, we would look to accelerate that as quickly as possible, but we would require some level of procurement and perhaps a little guidance from procurement colleagues on that. Such a transaction tends to take six to eight weeks to complete, as I understand it. The other challenge we face is simply to address the challenge of the funding that is required for the hospital. We do, however, recognise the need for the scanner and are keen to move on it.
