New Zealand's Health Minister announces smaller-build approach for Nelson Hospital's redevelopment, aiming for faster completion and seismic remediation.
New Zealand's Health Minister Dr. Shane Reti announced a smaller build approach for Nelson Hospital's redevelopment, with a series of smaller buildings using existing infrastructure. This may speed up completion ahead of the 2031 deadline and retain the existing buildings due to better seismic remediation. However, the opposition claims a lack of business case for the decision and criticizes cost-saving priorities, advocating for a full rebuild to meet the growing population's increasing demand for healthcare services.
