Parliament: 41 Session: 1

LAVERTON HOSPITAL — UPGRADE

660. Hon NEIL THOMSON to the minister representing the Minister for Health:

I refer to planned works and construction start times for the new Laverton Hospital in the northern goldfields.

(1) Can the minister confirm whether design and plans of the new Laverton Hospital in the northern goldfields have been finalised?

(2) If the design phase has been completed, has the tender document been advertised for the project to be tendered?

(3) If the design phase and tender document draft have not been finalised, can the minister please update the house as to what stage this long-awaited project is at, and an expected time frame, commencement date and completion date?

The PRESIDENT: My apologies, honourable member. I think I called you the wrong family name; I know your name is Thomson! I am not sure why the other one came out.

Hon STEPHEN DAWSON replied:

I thank the honourable member for some notice of the question. The following answer is provided on behalf of the Minister for Health.

(1) The design plans are not yet finalised for the new Laverton Hospital.

(2) Not applicable.

(3) The Laverton Hospital redevelopment project is currently in the detailed design stages of planning. The tender for the project is currently anticipated to be released in the second quarter of 2022, and practical completion is currently anticipated for the last quarter of 2023.
