Wednesday's front pages are covering the latest in the National Children's Hospital saga, new rules on cash for shop and cafes and the first four-day working week trial in Ireland.
The Irish Times reports that the Government is bracing for a surge in the cost of the new national children's hospital after the HSE and the board overseeing the project were told final costs need to be presented to Government. Ken Early also has a report from Qatar, where Iran lost out to the United States in their Group B World Cup clash.
The first-ever trial of a four-day week in Ireland has been described as "a resounding success", according to the Irish Examiner, with all 12 companies that tested the new schedule now planning to continue it into the future.
The Irish Independent leads with the news that shop and cafes could be forced by law to accept cash payments to shore up new rules for banks.
The Herald leads with a report from the courts, where a woman avoided jail time after slashing her neighbours arm's over a suspected affair she was having with the defendant's husband.
The Irish Daily Mail front page says: Stephen Donnelly will look for €1.4 billion in funding for the Department of Health after the Government underestimated the cost of battling Covid-19 this year.
