The Tasmanian Government has delivered the state’s largest ever health infrastructure project, with patients now being cared for in the Royal Hobart Hospital following its redevelopment.
“Our management of the project is backed by the Tasmanian Audit Office’s (TAO) findings in late 2019 that the Royal Hobart Hospital Redevelopment, one of Tasmania’s largest ever health infrastructure projects “has, in all material aspects, been managed effectively,” said Minister for Health, Sarah Courtney.
“The project we delivered is, frankly, a million miles away from the one the Labor-Green Government mismanaged, failing to even lay a single brick.”
She said the state government had funded almost the entirety of the $689 million of the Royal Hobart Hospital redevelopment.
“Tasmanians can be assured the Liberal Government will continue to invest in health care in Tasmania, through our record $9.8 billion spend into health and hospitals, providing the care Tasmanians need,” Ms Courtney said.
