Liquidator to be appointed to private hospital

CREDITORS of a €90 million private hospital owed money since its closure five months ago have been advised that a liquidator will be appointed shortly.

The Cork Medical Centre (CMC), which closed in March owing money to suppliers and staff, will hold a meeting of creditors on May 5 at which a liquidator will be appointed.

CMC, which opened last October, had promised to employ close to 500 staff.
