WQ.231/2022

WRITTEN QUESTION TO THE MINISTER FOR TREASURY AND RESOURCES BY DEPUTY R.S. KOVACS OF ST. SAVIOUR

QUESTION SUBMITTED ON MONDAY 17th OCTOBER 2022 ANSWER TO BE TABLED ON MONDAY 24th OCTOBER 2022

Question

Will the Minister provide full details of expenditure on the Our Hospital Project to date, including purchase of land or property; and will the Minister give a breakdown of any costs, fees and charges that are still accruing on a daily, weekly, and monthly basis?

Answer

The expenditure for the Our Hospital Project to date is summarised in the table

below: * PCSA - Preconstruction Services Costs

In terms of continuing costs as at the 18th of October 2022, the GoJ Project Team is continuing with approximately £55,000 costs per month until further notice.

Expenditure on external professional services fees for the delivery of the hospital design is largely on hold with limited continuing expenditure in support of the 100-day review into the Our Hospital project. When the outcome of the review is agreed then further work will be done by the GoJ Project Team in determining how best to deliver the outcomes which will naturally include professional fees. With respect to professional fees, due to the scope and scale of the Government of Jersey’s capital delivery programme, it should be noted that for any large scale project the Government of Jersey would routinely buy in specialist project resource.

Other ongoing costs relate to enabling works at the former Les Quennevais School. These will provide modern, fit-for-purpose healthcare facilities. These works are progressing as planned and are expected to cost approximately £9.5m by the end of 2022.
