Budget Management and Control of Health Expenditure in the context of Budget 2020: Discussion
Mr. Colm Desmond:
Looking at the capital investment plans for the health sector, in addition to the children's hospital there are many other capital projects already under way and they are at various stages of development. The Deputy will be aware of some of those. These are ongoing and will be completed in various timeframes. These projects are broadly on target and include, for instance, the radiation oncology centres in Cork, Galway and Dublin, the new forensic hospital in Portrane and the rehabilitation hospital in Dún Laoghaire. There are significant projects under way and at various stages of completion.
