Revealed: Details of shocking snag list at new National Children's Hospital
Briefly

None of the 3,000 rooms finished so far by the builder of the new National Children's Hospital were completed to the expected, acceptable standard. Health Minister Stephen Donnelly emphasized the dissatisfaction with the quality, indicating this could delay the opening of the facility well into 2026 and called attention to the responsibility of the builder BAM in overseeing the project.
The construction of the National Children's Hospital has faced serious quality concerns, with a staggering claim that work estimated at €25 million was significantly under-resourced, completed for only €200,000 by another contractor. This raises questions about the management and oversight of such a vital project, particularly its impacts on patient care should it continue to fall behind schedule.
