Joint Oireachtas Committee on Health

Long-term Planning in the Health Services: Discussion

2:00 am

Mr. Bernard Gloster:

It was a high-risk decision.

Second, we have only just got through clearance of the objection to planning. That is what the statute requires. Citizens have a right to their planning processes. The week we opened the first 96, we got the approval for the second block, so the clock only starts in that sense now, but everything that could have been done up to that date to be ready to go with the shovel was done.

Mr. O'Connell might address the timeline.
