The requirement for capital investment in the children's hospitals in Dublin, to sustain and improve patient services in advance of the move to the new children's hospital, will continue to be considered in the context of the priorities in the Capital Programme. The HSE’s National Capital & Property Steering Committee appraises all projects to be included in the Capital Plan. Project applications must be accompanied by detailed project briefs. The project brief includes a needs assessment, a detailed capital appraisal or a cost benefit analysis, life cycle costs, projected capital budget and revenue and staffing implications.
