Pat is joined by journalist Paul Cullen to trace the long,
bruising saga of the National Children’s Hospital - a project
first priced at €650 million and now estimated at well over €2.2
billion, with more rises likely. Drawing on his new book, Billion
Dollar Baby, Cullen explains how decades of rivalry between
Dublin’s children’s hospitals, a tortuous site-selection process,
and planning missteps helped turn a once-unifying healthcare
ambition into one of the State’s most troubled public builds.
