629. To ask the Minister for Health the reason an independent expert is no longer involved in assessing the ventilation systems in the operating theatres of the new National Children's Hospital (details supplied), given that the guidelines written by that independent expert will still be used for validation; and if he will make a statement on the matter.

The National Paediatric Hospital Development Board (NPHDB) has statutory responsibility for planning, designing, building and equipping the New Children's Hospital (NCH). In relation to validation of ventilation systems for the NCH, I have referred your question to the NPHDB for direct reply.
