Paschal Donohoe (Dublin Central, Fine Gael) | Oireachtas source

I very much support the board and the work it is doing and I have confidence it is managing a very difficult situation on our behalf well. It is making the kinds of demands and putting in place the kinds of arrangements that taxpayers and the children of Ireland deserve. Yes, I expect we will see the hospital handover at that point but I know also, given all the difficulty we have had, that it is important we support the board in ensuring the timeline and deadline are observed. The work of the board is central to that and I support it in its efforts, particularly with regard to the contractor.
