[20386/01]
The work of the project team to prepare a detailed brief for identified priority developments at the hospital is ongoing. The team will produce a development brief for Ennis General Hospital which will present a clear definition of the Mid-Western Health Board's requirements for the development of the hospital. A design team will be appointed following agreement on the development brief by the team.
The question of tender documentation can only be considered following preparation and agreement of specific design proposals and other statutory requirements such as planning permission.
