Will the Minister assure the House that the new hospital will increase overall bed capacity and reduce waiting times for children? In other words, will the sum of the beds in the new hospital exceed the total number of beds at the three existing sites? Waiting time, not location, is the primary concern for parents. They need to see significant improvements in waiting times. What of the future with regard to the hospital facility at Crumlin? Will the Minister outline for the House exactly what is intended there?
I would like to share my opportunity with my colleague, if that is fine.
