The board had expressed grave concerns regarding the potential impact of disputes with the main hospital contractor BAM on both the project itself and its completion date, which is not currently forecast to occur before late 2024 at the earliest. File photo

The board of the €1.7bn National Children’s Hospital declared itself “very satisfied” with its own performance following a self-evaluation review at the end of 2020.

The self-evaluation report was compiled in December of that year, in line with the code of practice for the governance of State bodies, and at a time when there were eight people on the National Paediatric Health Development Board (NPHDB).
