Mr Berry - asked the Minister for Health and Community Care upon notice on

17 June 1997:

In relation to the new private psychiatric unit at Calvary Private Hospital-

(1) How much land is to be used for the unit.

(2) How much was paid for the land.

(3) What are the lease arrangements for the site.

Mrs Carnell - the answer to the Member's question is:

(1) The gross floor space utilised by Hyson Green (which is the name of the new psychiatric unit) equates to 1163 square metres.

(2) The Hyson Green project is being funded by the Congregation of the Little Company of Mary through Calvary Private Hospital. There is no reliance for funding from the ACT Government nor Calvary Public Hospital.

(3) The lease arrangements are those that are contained in the original lease documentation, "to provide health facilities".
