AN BORD PLEA~ALA · Received: \ to ~~ -

Fee: .!:::t~-:...:,.~:;""'i";--:-:~ - f OCT 2015 PA0043. Receipt No: Re: Planning Application No:

Dear Sirs,

LTR·OATED FROM PL ---

I am writing to you on behalf of the F2 Centre and Enterprise Management Board, (the successor structure to The Fatima Regeneration Board.) We wish to offer our support for planning application no PA0043, the building of a National Children's hospital located at the existing St. James Hospital Campus. (SJH).

As I am sure you are aware, the physical regeneration of the Fatima area was completed just as the national financial crisis occurred, and as a result there are many enterprise units sitting empty in the Herberton Development and indeed in the surrounding areas. We are hopeful that the investment in the new paediatric hospital will be the catalyst which will result in renewed commercial investment, and that it will attract ancillary businesses that can avail of the existing resources in Herberton and in the surrounding areas. The hospital's development will be central to the social regeneration plans for the area with the NCH hospital team already committing to specific deliverables in this regard. In addition to the obvious clinical benefits associated with the hospital the residents and businesses, as well as existing staff of the campus, will benefit from significant social, environmental and economic improvements in the area for years to come.

Fatima is an area of the city that has suffered as a result of intergenerational disadvantage and the new paediatric hospital has the potential to create thousands of jobs for Dublin 8 and its surrounds. Social clauses in the construction contracts for the build phase of the project along with the commitment of the hospital development board and the support of local community groups and statutory agencies mean that local people will be employed in the development of the hospital. The Community Benefit steering group is already in place to ensure that all potential opportunities for the local community are maximised. Chaired by Gordon Jeyes of Tusla, it includes representatives from Dublin City Council, Educational Training Boards, local Regeneration Boards, St. James's Hospital, and the Children's Hospital Group.

We firmly believe that the StJames's Campus is the right location for the new hospital- it is centrally located and has more public transport linkages than any other hospital. The F2 Centre is based adjacent to the existing campus where we operate conferencing facilities. luas and bus links in the area are excellent and especially beneficial to those travelling from all counties of Ireland to conferences in our centre. The luas serves Heuston and Connolly stations, and caters for people travelling from the four corners of Ireland. The Luas cross city will be established by the time the National Children's Hospital opens which means people can travel on the Luas from as far as Broombridge on the Northside or Brides Glen on the South Side to get to St. James's. The exit at the Rialto luas stop will deliver visitors and staff to the National Children's Hospital doorstep. There will be park and ride facilities at the Red Cow Luas stop for those who wish to leave their car and travel quickly and efficiently to SJH Campus. Travel time on the Luas from the Red Cow to SJH Campus is 14 mins, a quick and convenient way to travel straight to the hospital with reliable travel time. There are six bus routes that pass the boundary of the hospital and some which go through the campus.

• For parents who wish to drive to the hospital there will be 1000 secure car parking spaces, of which 675 will cater of families and visitors as well as an emergency drop off location. The parking system will allow families to reserve a parking space ahead of arriving to the hospital, which will make things a lot less stressful for them.

Having seen the plans for the New Children's hospital with all of the latest facilities which will ensure that it will be a world-class building and has been designed to enable staff to deliver the best possible clinical care for Ireland's sickest children and young people. Special care has been taken include facilities which will make a child's stay in hospital as comfortable and welcoming for the child and the family as possible. The green areas and play areas are a lovely addition. Its completion will result in better clinical outcomes, improved survival rates for the sickest children and young people and will significantly enhance the experience of hospital services for children, young people and their families. Having the new children's hospital located on the same campus as the largest teaching hospital in Ireland, and in time with the new maternity hospital, will ensure that Ireland's children will finally have the hospital that they deserve.

There is no doubt that the New Children's Hospital can have a positive and regenerative effect on the local communities in Dublin 8, bringing with it opportunities for local employment, the development of small businesses, and renewed interest in the area. The F2 Centre and Enterprise Management Board support and welcome its development and we endeavour to work alongside the National Hospital Development Board to ensure that community benefit is maximised throughout the build and we hope that when the new National Hospital becomes operational that it will exist in harmony with and as a welcome addition to the existing communities.

Yours Sincerely,

On Behalf of the F2 Centre and Enterprise Management Board.
