69539 (2024). Dr Tracey McLellan to the Minister for Infrastructure: Does he anticipate receiving any future estimate of the 1.880 billion cost for NDH Facilities (Outpatients and Inpatients); if so when; if not why not?

Hon Chris Bishop: Yes. I receive updates about the project on a frequent basis - this project is significant infrastructure for the Southland community. While project costs are still being put together and negotiated I consider it is not in the public interest to provide updates on these figures as this could undermine the Crown's commercial position.
