  1. That will probably turn up on a Contractor’s Claim submission

    > Additional Public Information Signage – €5000

  2. How?

    Thats all I want to know. How? Hospitals are built all over the world every year, and they don’t routinely go almost €2 billion over budget.

    The management of the whole damn project is a shambles. This isn’t one brickie charging for three subcontractors but only hiring two; this is either incompetence, corruption or both on a grand scale.

  3. It’s honestly mind-boggling to think about.

    That a hospital in Ireland, not even one that’s especially grand or ostentatious, is among the most expensive buildings on earth, being up there among nuclear power plants, airports, enormous skyscrapers and hotels, and so on.

    It’s on track to be more than double the cost of things like the Burj Khalifa or Petronas Towers for fuck sake.

  4. Most accurate plaque, Well Done… now I wonder who will step up to do the unveiling ?

  5. Watched the other day a short documentary about it, Simon puts it with facts and point of view how this project looks outside Ireland. Interesting watch. [The new children’s hospital: Irelands 2.5bn Euro Shame](https://youtu.be/GbEsE7DlotA)

  6. Already out of date, cause it will be the most expensive building in the history of civilization which makes it the most expensive building in the universe,I’m so proud

  7. Gov should really be held accountable for this on election day but they won’t be

  8. Still slightly cheaper than One World Trade Center so far, in fairness.

  9. No body will care when it’s done. We will have a world class children’s hospital. 2 billion is nothing when you look at our surplus. Get it done
