The Government is facing calls for clarity on National Maternity Hospital (NMH) plans after claims it was considering moving the NMH to Tallaght Hospital as a "plan B".

A former master of the NMH has claimed that a Cabinet minister informed him that the new maternity hospital may be located at Tallaght instead of St Vincent’s Hospital.
