Joint Oireachtas Committee on Health

New National Maternity Hospital: Discussion (Resumed)

Mr. James Menton:

We have started that process. We have removed the iconography on the grounds of the Elm Park campus. That is a task the board will consider in the ensuing months because, obviously, the final step in the transfer of ownership only took place in April. There is some guidance in Dr. Catherine Day's report about iconography within what were hitherto religiously-owned institutions such as ours. We will take that guidance and ensure that we will display appropriate sensitivity to the needs of all our stakeholders and patients.
