[28963/16]
View answerFunding has been made available in the Capital Plan to appraise, begin the design feasibility and design the future infrastructure developments at the hospital. Further funding beyond design stage is dependent on the costing and timing of any proposed projects, the availability of resources in the context of many other demands across the country and the limited future capital envelope for the health service and the overall priorities for future service development in the Dublin Midlands Hospital Group.
