Yesterday, board members of the Rotunda Hospital defied the
Health minster by refusing to accept a government order to halt
public-only consultants caring for private patients.

The number of consultant obstetricians on public contracts at the
hospitals is small, but it is reported that the hospital wishes
to make a stand as a matter of principle.

The dispute could see HSE funding for the rotunda withdrawn.

Joining Pat for more on this was Dr Peter Boylan, former master
of the National Maternity Hospital and former chairman of the
Institute of Obstetricians and Gynaecologists
