Contractor BAM issued a report in February citing a ‘substantial completion date’ of May 2024, instead of March which was stated in a previous report
The NPHDB said the absence of a programme of works meant that BAM was not compliant. It also said monthly reports for March, April and May were overdue.
If the delivery date is in line with BAM’s April update, and the hospital is handed over only in May of next year, that would risk undermining the Government’s expectation that children would be treated in the hospital next year. It also raises the prospect of further delays meaning it would not be operational before the date by which the next general election must be held, in March 2025.
