21 Deputy K.G. Pamplin of the Minister for Infrastructure regarding mental health

related projects: (OQ.216/2020)

Further to my previous questions on this subject, and recent email correspondence I received from the Minister, will he provide an update on work on the place of safety project and the building of the new in-patient facility to replace Orchard House, including an estimated end date?

Deputy K.C. Lewis (The Minister for Infrastructure):

The relocation of Orchard House to Clinique Pinel is a project to adapt an existing building on the St. Saviour site and to create a dedicated acute mental health facility that includes 26 en suite bedrooms, a place of safety, a tribunal suite and a training facility. Works commenced on Monday, 7th September. The contract period is 72 weeks, with a completion schedule for January 2022. The contract is being expedited by reducing the number of phases of the project by running some in parallel.

4.21.1  The Deputy of St. Martin :

Is the Minister aware that there appears to be a shortage of air conditioning in Clinique Pinel? Deputy K.C. Lewis :

I am aware that the building is being uprated. I have not seen the detail of that, but I am sure that will be addressed in the project.
