Fianna Fáil Spokesperson on Health Billy Kelleher TD is urging Minister Simon Harris to publish the deal reached between the National Maternity Hospital and the Sisters of Charity.
Deputy Kelleher said: "The ownership of the new National Maternity Hospital has been subject to intense discussion and debate in recent days. There have been many reports and counter-reports regarding the proposed governance structure for the hospital which is due to be constructed on the site of the current St. Vincent’s Hospital.

"While I have requested the Master of Holles Street Dr Rhona Mahony to attend the Oireachtas Health Committee, alongside Kieran Mulvey, I am also requesting that all details of the various reports, reviews and deals on the hospital be fully published so that people can ascertain the facts. We need clarity on what is actually contained in the deal reached to provide a new National Maternity Hospital.
"I am also extending the invitation to Minister Harris to attend the Health Committee so that he can outline exactly what he agreed to and at what stages he was consulted."
