Mr. O'Malley
Pending the completion of a survey which the federated Dublin voluntary hospitals are arranging to carry out, it would not be possible to say which of the constituent hospitals will be replaced by the building of the proposed new hospital. The new hospital project is at too early a stage of development to enable any reliable estimate to be made as to the time when it would be possible to discontinue the operation of one of the present hospitals in the Federation.
