Joint Oireachtas Committee on Health

Update on New National Children’s Hospital: National Paediatric Hospital Development Board

Mr. Phelim Devine:

The total equipment cost, if you include what is built into the contract that BAM has procured, is around €110 million. As a figure, we are looking at the moment and are forecasting approximately €5 million over budget, but we expect that to come back down. But, as I say, of the €85 million which we are responsible for procuring from the NPHDB, we have only procured €23 million to €24 million, comprising some €11 million in procurements, so we really have to wait. We are forecasting being a couple of million euro over budget.
