Latest: Impose compulsory purchase order for National Maternity Hospital site, says Labour

Labour’s Health Spokesperson Alan Kelly TD has said that Minister Simon Harris should consider bringing in legislation, if necessary, to initiate a compulsory purchase order for the St Vincent’s Hospital site, if the deal to build the new National Maternity Hospital does not go ahead.
His comments come after the Board of the St Vincent’s Group, which is run by the Sisters of Charity religious order, said in a statement this evening that the status of the project would be reviewed in the wake of recent controversy.
