shocking. have they tried throwing money at the problem?
Money is just a construct anyway

Someone I know who has worked for the HSE for a long time has gradually gone from “This is too big, in the wrong location, will over run and over run” to “This is one of the most amazing facilities I’ve seen and is going to transform health in this country”.

There’ll be a Tribunal about this before a single child sets foot in it
Didn’t Leo give a firm commitment it would be opened this year and not a penny more.
What an absolute calamity of a project. Really awful.
Three billion euro here we come. The champagne corks will have been flying in BAM HQ last night when this delay was announced
Ah ffs BAM are signalling 2026 now.
The Goverment are being led on a merry dance with this thing. Taxpayer is getting milked.
This government couldn’t deliver a pizza on time, so not surprising at all
Politicians catch a lot of shit for this, but what worries me is that no matter who we elect the bureaucracy that ran this shit show will be in place.
After all this and the design still looks like shit. I walked past it and there’s already some damaged parts. And what Is the million tiny windows?! This pic makes it look like a prison reception.
A comedy of errors and no one will be held accountable for the abusive use of tx payers money
We need an investigation into the spiralling costs & delays of the children’s hospital. The outrage about RTÉ wasting public money, and we should be pissed at them but it’s pennies compared to this shit.
BAM know they have us by the balls. What is the govt going to do at this stage throw them off it and get someone else to finish it? Only cause more delays. Find it hard to believe tho that there wasn’t penalties for missing deadlines included in the contract when it when out to tender tho
We are governed by deeply unserious people. I’m starting to think all our most talented minds emigrate. They’d be right too.
