National Paediatric Hospital Development Board and Children's Health Ireland: Discussion
2:00 am
Mr. David Gunning:
As outlined in the opening statement, there is a considerable amount of medical equipment that was already in the hospital. All the diagnostic equipment and all the other items are already in there, as listed. Then there is a phase between. The early access that is referred to in the opening statement allows both NPHDB and CHI to get access in advance of substantial completion. The purpose of early access is to allow us to, shall we say, de-risk or move forward with some of the aspects of hospital fit-out in advance of substantial completion.
