Harris remains under immense pressure to resign over Children’s Hospital overspend fiasco




The Minister for Health Simon Harris is still facing intense pressure to step down from his job, over his handling of the National Children’s Hospital overspend scandal.

Harris is taking flak from multiple angles, with both Sinn Fein and opposition TDs calling for his resignation.

The minister had maintained that he had no knowledge of the runaway costs of building the new hospital until November of last year, but a number of memos emerged proving that he knew about it as far back as August of 2018.
