Stop The Children's Hospital
Stop construction of the new children's hospital now!
Why is this important?
We need to have a conversation about its location, size, facilities, and cost. If we, the people, are to spend €2 billion, we need to be consulted about how our money is being spent.
The hospital, as currently scoped, is not sized for the current population. It will not be coastguard helicopter accessible in cases of emergency. Co-located with a maternity hospital would be desirable.
There is no denying that we need and want the best of care for our children, but the Children's Hospital project in its current runaway state, is dangerously close to making us the laughing stock of the world.
We demand more transparency and accountability.
Re-open the discussion on location.
Rigorously consult the people now.
