Your question regarding revenue raised from individual hospitals has been referred to the Health Service Executive for direct reply.

Income raised from car parking fees and other sources, such as canteen fees, go towards the gross running costs of the hospital.

If you have not received a reply from the HSE within 15 working days please contact my Private Office who will follow up.
