A national march against the ownership of the National Maternity Hospital is set to take place next month.

Parents for Choice will march through the capital on Sunday, May 7 against the decision to grant ownership of the National Maternity Hospital to the Sisters of Charity.

The march, themed ‘We Own Our Hospitals’, will gather at 2pm outside the Garden of Remembrance and finish at Merrion Square outside Leinster House.

Parents for Choice spokeswoman Sinead Redmond said: “As parents, we are protesting to protect our maternity care and our daughters' future care.

"We want to ensure that healthcare facilities paid for by the people of Ireland are accountable to and run by the people of Ireland.

“This decision is unjustifiable. A national service belongs in public, not private hands. With each resignation of those involved with this project it becomes clearer that the ill-conceived process that lead to this decision must be reconsidered."
