Reilly hopes to have planning permission for Childrens Hospital by Dec 2014

The Health Minister James Reilly has said there is plenty of work going on behind the scenes to get the new National Children’s Hospital off the ground.

Dr Reilly is being quizzed in the Dáil about how long it will take to build the hospital at St. James' and why there is a delay in appointing a new design team and permanent board.
