Taoiseach Micheal Martin says National Maternity Hospital concerns are no longer 'sustainable'

Taoiseach Micheal Martin has said concerns raised over procedures at the new National Maternity Hospital and the land it’s to be built on are no longer “sustainable.”

Both the Taoiseach and Health Minister Stephen Donnelly have said the State will “essentially” own the land at St Vincent’s campus because the State has a lease for 300 years.

And are adamant that women would have access to healthcare services like abortion, gender-affirming surgery and tubal ligation at the new hospital.
