Ministerial Statement

REPATRIATION GENERAL HOSPITAL

The Hon. J.D. HILL (Kaurna—Minister for Health, Minister for Mental Health and Substance Abuse, Minister for the Southern Suburbs, Minister Assisting the Premier in the Arts) (14:02): I seek leave to make a ministerial statement.

Leave granted.

The Hon. J.D. HILL: Yesterday during question time I mentioned the $40 million redevelopment at the Repatriation General Hospital to build a teaching, aged care and rehabilitation facilities development. The total cost of the project is, in fact, $41.3 million and this is made up of a total government capital expenditure of $30.7 million and $10.5 million in operating costs. The capital costs are made up of construction costs of $32.3 million offset by the proceeds of a land sale of $1.6 million. The government component of the redevelopment is complemented by the private capital component of $18.6 million put forward by ACH Group and Flinders University.
