Joint Oireachtas Committee on Health
Update on Sláintecare Reforms (Resumed)
Mr. Damien McCallion:
There is a proposal around those beds in terms of what needs to go where and, on the estate side, what can actually fit on each of the sites. That is with the Department at the moment in terms of the capital side. Essentially, it will form part of the discussions around the capital plan for next year as part of the service plan process. That will determine what the HSE can afford and what it can build in 2024. There is a very firm proposal around those 1,500 modular beds.
