Safe

and secure public environment at

nighHime

Parents, MummyPages and relevant interest groups are opposed to the construction of

the

National

Children s Hospital at StJames site because:

i>

Inaccessibility: The National Children s Hospital

will

be

the

main hospital

for

children in

Ireland. Located in the inner city Dublin, heavy traffic wi ll make i t difficult

for

emergency

services and families to reach the hospital in an emergency. The influx

of

traffic into the city

will cause further gridlock and result in a delay in emergency care to those children who

need it

the

most.

i>

Limited parking: The proposed 473 bed hospital at StJames will contain only 675 public car

parking spaces which is far too little when you take into account parents, relatives and all

levels

of

staff.

i> Security: StJames site is located in the inner city which presents a number of safety and

security issues for all those visiting

the

hospital, especially dur ing evening visiting hours.

i>

Lack

of

space: StJames site

won t

allow

for

expansion in years

to

come.

It

is

a known fact

that

hospitals double in

size

every 10-20 years. There will be no room

for that at St.

James s

which may mean relocating the hospital in years to come.

i> Waste

of

tax payer s money: In 2007, the National Paediatric Development Board was set

up

to

manage the development of

the

Mater. (40 million of tax payer s money was wasted

on

the

proposed

Mater

location and while many more millions will be wasted on the

planning for the St. James location, it will cost even more

to

relocate when we outgrow this

site.

The Government and Planning Authorities are failing

to

look at the bigger picture,

with

this in mind,

MummyPages is calling on parents, grandparents, and family members in Ireland

to

stand up and

voice their concerns regarding

the

new site for The National Children s Hospital. It

is

our

responsibility as citizens

of

Ireland to fight for the best location

for

the new Children s Hospital to

ensure children can access the best possible care in a timely and efficient manner.

Speaking on

behalf of

the MummyPages community Laura Haugh, Mum-in-Residence with

MummyPages.le said:

"Our mums are very upset

that

the Government has

nat

only wasted 40 million on the badly

thought out

Mater

site for the new National Children's Hospital,

but that

they ore about to make on

even bigger mistake

now with

the

new

proposed site

at

St. James."

"Thankfully

not

all ofour mums have hod to ace thf or

US

je ur.ney

h J J h e n

seriously

ill.

Nor have they all had

t

endure long do s' im

ks or

even mo'nt,m afmedicql treatment

to help a sick child. However,

all of

our mums ockno ledge the invaluable advice

from

tr eir peers

both offline and in

our

online community who hove perience ~ P n t i n l l e n g e s issues

before them as life-saving.

It

s far this reason that t

current ly enduring doily hospital visits

for

their

h i l d r

and accept and trust the v i ~ o

_ .....

Special Kids Group' as their

own.

"Access, parking, safety and development potential are the most important actors in considering the

location of

our

new National Children's Hospital, and i f the Government and Planning Authorities


7/7

won't listen to these objections, then maybe they'll listen when it hits their pocket

and

they

realise

that the Greenfield site proposed

in lanchardstown

will actually be cheaper and

quicker

to

construct.
