Lyell McEwin Hospital

19 The Hon. K.J. MAHER (Leader of the Opposition) (29 May 2018). Is the government committed to the existing capital works scope and budget for the redevelopment underway at Lyell McEwin Hospital and if not, what changes have been made?

The Hon. S.G. WADE (Minister for Health and Wellbeing): I have been advised:

The Lyell McEwin Hospital emergency department redevelopment has a total capital budget of $58.0 million and the government has continued to progress the delivery of this redevelopment.

Concept design works for the remaining emergency department redevelopment (including new short stay mental health unit) has recently commenced in line with original scope.
