On the 9th January 2019 my Department wrote to the National Treasury Management Agency in order that they formally update the European Investment Bank in relation to the increased costs and completion dates of the new children’s hospital and associated outpatient and urgent care centres project.

My Department is keeping the European Investment Bank apprised of the position in relation to the project as agreed between all parties to the loan.
