The board overseeing the development of the new National Children's Hospital says there's "no expectation" it'll be completed by the latest deadline. It's said that the main contractor, BAM, has submitted claims for extra costs worth over 200 million euro. For more on this, Kieran Cuddihy was joined by Paul Davis, procurement lecturer at the School of business in DCU and Roisin Shortall, co-leader of the Social Democrats and member of the Health committee.

The National Children's Hospital construction is currently paused, as there's a battle between the construction company and the hospital board as to who should pay for the increased costs due to Covid-19. The government's ex gratia payments for other projects are not applicable to BAM in this project - but why? Edgar Morgenroth, Prof of Economics at the School of Business in DCU, spoke to Ivan about what he thinks might be the solution and how to avoid further conflict in the project.  

Orla Hegarty, Assistant Professor at the School of architecture at UCD, and David Cullinane, Sinn Féin Health Spokesperson and TD for Waterford, discuss the delay in the development of the National Children's Hospital.

It is National Children's Hospital week!Check this out.

The new National Children's Hospital is due to open on the site of St James's Hospital in Dublin in 2022 and is set to cost more than 2 billion euro.A part of this large budget is set to go towards the installation of facial recognition technology from China as a part of the hospitals security system.This type of technology maps features from a photograph or video and compares it with a database of known faces in order to confirm the identity of a person.This decision to implement this technology in the new National Children's Hospital has proved to be very controversial and has raised some GDPR concerns from the public.To tell us more Joe is joined in studio by Solicitor Rossa McMahon of PG McMahon Solicitors in Newcastle West..

Show Notes Also happening... Irish Government Long discussion and coverage in the Irish times both in articles and podcasts regarding how Varadkar appears reasonable, has chill body language and is generally very organised compared to Johnson on his visit on Monday... So relatively gushing praise for a minority government leader of an unpopular government... Recentish (May) polling has the Government approval a little above 30% and in March it was at 38%. Varadkar is consistently higher than that... (mid 30s-40) Politico has voting intention polling aggregate for Fine Gale at 26% in second.. So why is the government in place exactly? The list of ongoing scandals is long and would be the kind of things that would have long since forced a government down: https://www.thejournal.ie/data-protection-commission-psc-4797429-Sep2019/ There's a scandal over a report from the data protection commissioner that the government is ignoring probably illegal requirements to get an ID card (for which people are getting denied) and additionally not being GDPR compliant with the handling of the data after identity had been proven... The minister claims they have legal advice saying otherwise... cool BusConnects Cervical checks National Broadband Plan...

First: A subtle but deliberate shift was noted in Theresa May's position on the Brexit backstop during a trip to Belfast yesterday. As the two-day Northern Ireland visit draws to a close today, is her strategy any clearer and what are its chances of survival? Plus: The blame game over the dramatic cost overrun on the proposed National Children's Hospital is lurching from controversy to full-blown crisis. What might it mean for the government?
