Patients want end to delays on CF unit

Cystic fibrosis patients and their families are calling on the Government to honour its pledge to give them new hospital facilities, warning that the cost of the project is rising as the delay drags on.
Estimates for the 20-bed in-patient unit at Beaumont Hospital in Dublin have risen by almost 10% in the last year from an initial price of €11m to the current costing of €12m.
