Joint Oireachtas Committee on Health

National Children's Hospital: Discussion (Resumed)

Mr. Dean Sullivan:

As Ms Conroy said, the HSE has commissioned a review, as requested by the Government, which will examine the reasons for the cost overruns associated with the construction. This will include the identification of the contributory factors and associated responsibilities so we can identify any potential weaknesses in personnel, governance structures and so forth for the future. The outcome of that review will allow us to reach a view on the question asked by the Deputy.
