THE cost of the new Children’s Hospital will exceed €1.43billion, an Oireachtas committee heard yesterday.
National Paediatric Hospital Development Board chief David Gunning told the Health panel that figure – estimated in 2018 – was reached at the end of July.
He also said construction is scheduled to be completed by March 2024 but could not divulge the final bill.
Representatives from the NPHDB and the Department of Health appeared before the Committee for an update on construction progress.
The National Children’s Hospital on the St James’s Hospital site is the largest current infrastructure development in the State.
It has run into significant delays and financial overruns.
