256. To ask the Minister for Health his plans for the Holles Street hospital site once the National Maternity Hospital has relocated; if it will be repurposed within the HSE; if not, if it will be sold; and if he will make a statement on the matter. [23704/22]

Under the legal framework that will underpin the relocation of the NMH to the Elm Park campus, the Operating Licence sets out that as part of its investment in the new hospital, the NMH will transfer its title to the current NMH buildings to the HSE.
This will provide the HSE with the flexibility to decide how best to utilise these facilities going forward. However, as this is an operational matter, the HSE would be able to provide more information in relation to this question and, as such, I have asked the HSE to respond to the Deputy directly.
