Joint Oireachtas Committee on Health
National Children's Hospital: Discussion (Resumed)
Mr. Jim Breslin:
I said that it was under pressure. I cannot say that we had an explicit outcome at that stage. If the Deputy is asking me whether someone in the Department of Public Expenditure and Reform had sensed that there might be cost pressures within the children's hospital it would not be a shock to me to hear that that was the case. That was the view within the Department.
