Tánaiste: Govt not using 'magic money' to pay for children's hospital overruns

Tánaiste Simon Coveney has insisted “magic money” is not being used to pay for overruns for the children's hospital while pledging that cash will be found to fund the project.

Opposition parties targetted spending for the construction of the planned €1.7bn children's hospital amid reports that other health projects are now at risk because of the excessive costs.
