Hospital will move from Holles Street to St Vincent’s campus in south Dublin if Minister for Health’s proposal is approved by Cabinet
It is envisaged the new entity will provide an expanded maternity and gynecology services with an additional 80 beds over than the current capacity at Holles Street. Moreover, there will be no shared beds in wards with individual rooms for all patients.
The Government was accused by Opposition parties and other campaigning groups of delivering a scheme that fell short of being a publicly-owned hospital on publicly-owned land. If the memo is approved by Cabinet on Tuesday, a non-statutory inquiry will be established into the historical licensing and use of the drug in Ireland.
However, it is understood that some of the issues involved in the legislation are complex, and it has been subject to detailed examination by the Attorney General. There are concerns that some of the proposals might lead to unintended consequences, such as causing delays to the conveyancing process.
