Clare Hospital

In reply to Ms PRATT (Frome) (21 June 2024). (Estimates Committee B)

The Hon. C.J. PICTON (Kaurna—Minister for Health and Wellbeing): I have been advised:

The Clare Hospital CSSD Upgrade project is being funded from the Regional Asset Sustainment Program.

Additional funding has been allocated to supplement the existing budget, which has experienced a significant uplift in project delivery costs linked to a number of factors, including escalation of construction costs in regional areas.

The Malinauskas government has now allocated a total budget of $7.3 million for the delivery of the Clare Hospital CSSD Upgrade project.
