Queen Elizabeth Hospital

The Hon. S.G. WADE (Minister for Health and Wellbeing) (15:18): If I may, Mr President, I was wondering if I could add to an answer that I gave to Mr Wortley earlier. I am advised that, following the completion of stage 3 of The QEH, there will be a requirement for a stage 4 redevelopment to complete the redevelopment. Stage 3 is projected to conclude in the 2022-23 financial year. To be frank, that's beyond the next election. In relation to the other part of the earlier question about the scope of stage 3 and stage 4, I am advised that there is no current proposal to postpone any elements of stage 3 to a future stage 4.
