Children's hospital: completion date postponed 14 times from 2020.
Ospidéal leanaí: dáta críochnaithe curtha siar 14 uair ó 2020.
The completion date of the new children's hospital has been pushed back fourteen times by four years by building contractors BAM, the Joint Oireachtas Committee for Health was told today.
Tá dáta críochnaithe an ospidéil nua leanaí curtha siar ceithre huaire dhéag le ceithre bliana ag na conraitheoirí tógála BAM, a dúradh leis an gComhchoiste Oireachtais um Sláinte inniu.
Speaking before the committee, the chief executive of the hospital's board, David Gunning, said that BAM now thinks the hospital will be completed by June next year, which is 31 months later than last indicated. the issue was discussed with the company.
Ag labhairt dó i láthair an choiste, dúirt príomhfheidhmeannach bhord an ospidéil, David Gunning, go gceapann BAM anois go mbeidh an t-ospidéal críochnaithe faoi Mheitheamh na bliana seo chugainn, sin 31 mí níos moille ná mar a tugadh le fios an uair dheireanach a pléadh an cheist leis an gcomhlacht.
David Gunning claimed this was not good enough and said the board could not accept the endless postponement.
Mhaígh David Gunning nach raibh seo maith go leor agus dúirt nach bhféadfadh an bord glacadh leis an gcur siar gan deireadh.
He admitted, however, that there was no contractual arrangement regarding a completion date set out in writing and he did not provide any information about what the board intended to do to resolve the problem.
D'admhaigh sé, áfach, nach raibh socrú conarthach maidir le dáta críochnaithe leagtha amach i scríbhinn agus níor thug sé aon eolas faoi cad a bhí ar intinn ag an mbord a dhéanamh chun an fhadhb a réiteach.
David Gunning informed the committee that the Government allocated a capital budget of €1.88 billion for the hospital last February and confirmed that a total of €1.478 billion had been spent on the project to date, including value added tax.
Thug David Gunning le fios don choiste gur lamháil an Rialtas buiséad caipitil de €1.88 billiún le haghaidh an ospidéil i mí Feabhra seo caite agus dhearbhaigh gur caitheadh €1.478 billiún san iomlán ar an togra go dtí seo, cáin bhreisluacha san áireamh.
The quality and timeliness of the construction and fitting out work at the hospital is being questioned.
Tá amhras á chaitheamh le hatha ar fheabhas agus ar thráthúlacht na hoibre tógála agus feistiúcháin san ospidéal.
Despite this, BAM said yesterday that the company was committed to completing the hospital "as soon as possible for the children of Ireland".
Ina ainneoin sin, dúirt BAM inné go raibh an comhlacht geallmhar ar an ospidéal a chríochnú "a luaithe ab fhéidir ar son leanaí na hÉireann".
According to Sinn Féin's health spokesperson, David Cullinane, different parties are ready to blame each other for the delay and asked both the hospital board and BAM to loosen this knot.
Dar le hurlabhraí sláinte Shinn Féin, David Cullinane, gur réidh ó dhreamanna éagsúla an milleán faoin moill a chur ar a chéile agus d'iarr ar bhord an ospidéil agus ar BAM araon an tsnaidhm seo a scaoileadh.
He also claimed that the Government was sending the pooch from their own house because they only had the foal part of the lattice and that they had no responsibility for the whole inefficiency.
Mhaígh sé freisin go raibh an Rialtas ag cur an phúca óna dteach féin i leith is nach raibh acu ach cuid an tsearraigh den chléith agus nach raibh aon fhreagracht orthu as an mí-éifeacht ar fad.
It must also be taken into account, said David Cullinane, that it was Taoiseach Simon Harris who signed the "flawed" contract with BAM on the first occasion when he was Minister for Health.
Ní mór a chur san áireamh chomh maith, arsa David Cullinane, gurbh é an Taoiseach Simon Harris a shínigh an conradh "lochtach" l...
