Rally To Take Place This Lunchtime Over Concerns About Religious Ethos In New National Maternity Hospital
The Campaign-Against-Church-Ownership-of-Women's-Healthcare is holding the protest outside the Dail at 1 o'clock
The Government says it wants to purchase the site on which it will be built, but the St Vincent's Hospital Group says it won't part with the land.
People Before Profit TD Brid Smith says they're expecting a massive turnout:
"I believe there will be large crowds gathering to really ensure that we do get a fully funded, owned and controlled entirely by a board of directors that is accountable to the government hospital, and we will be gathering at one o'clock to drive that message home."
