Children’s Health Ireland and National Paediatric Hospital Development Board: Discussion

9:30 am

Mr. David Gunning:

I thank the Deputy for that question. We have mapped out the end phase, if you like, in terms of the wind-down. I certainly want to send a message that we want to keep our team very much in place to get to the substantial completion and then, as we go beyond that, through the warrant period and various other legal matters, depending on the tail that is on this, we may or may not need to retain some of the skills for a longer period. Ultimately, this development board disappears. It dissolves or whatever the correct term is.
