Public Accounts Committee

National Paediatric Hospital Development Board: 2019 Financial Statement (Resumed)

9:30 am

Mr. Phelim Devine:

The group 3 and 4 equipment, which is diagnostic imaging monitors and stuff like that, that will not be procured. There is a balance between getting the right cost and getting the right technology that is contemporary and up to date. If we procure too early, we might procure something that is out of date by the time the hospital opens. We cannot do that. We must, therefore, get the best value for money in terms of price and quality for the CHI.
