The National Maternity Hospital (NMH) reaffirmed its commitment to moving to the St Vincent’s Hospital campus at a board meeting on Wednesday evening.

In a statement, the board of the hospital said it welcomed Tuesday’s statement from St Vincent’s in which the south Dublin hospital said the new national maternity hospital would carry out any medical procedure that was legal.

The NMH board said it had “re-endorsed its commitment to the agreement mediated by Kieran Mulvey in November last”.

This agreement ensured that the clinical, financial and operational independence of the new national maternity hospital “shall be enshrined in its memorandum and articles of association and all related legal agreements”.
