The government's spending €50M building two satellite centres for the new National Children's Hospital.
They'll be built in Blanchardstown and Tallaght, and will help ease the workload on the main hospital at St. James'.
The Health Minister says the centres will deal with less urgent cases, but will be capable of handling some emergencies.
Dr. James Reilly says the two smaller units should be seen as smaller parts of the larger hospital.
