Environmental aspects
Hospitals are not specifically mentioned in the EU Directive 2011/92/EU; however, the project may fall under the Annex II of the Directive in relation to urban development, in which case the decision on whether an EIA is needed or not is up to the local competent authorities. It is expected that the project will have positive social benefits as healthcare is an element of social cohesion.
