Fossils Posted May 17, 2009 Share Posted May 17, 2009 There is probably a thread about this somewhere, but would someone please remind me, What was the original published costing for the hospital? How much was the final bill? Has it been paid? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jim Posted May 17, 2009 Share Posted May 17, 2009 no its an outstanding bill, so the hospital is free. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Moghrey Mie Posted May 17, 2009 Share Posted May 17, 2009 Was it one of those design and build projects much loved by Maggie Thatcher? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WTF Posted May 17, 2009 Share Posted May 17, 2009 so how 'on budget' will the airport fiasco be?? the runway part is already 2 mil over down to cabbages, then we have all the rest of the unnecessaries though i'd vote for a treadmill for anne-normous Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fossils Posted May 17, 2009 Author Share Posted May 17, 2009 According to David Killip Chief Executive to the DHSS and Eddie Tear Minister for DHSS on Manx Radio just now, the New Hospital did not go over budget. It cost £111million. "The Hospital was completed by the amount allocated by Tynwald". SO IT DID NOT GO OVER BUDGET. Can we draw a line under this one and move on now . . . . Please read my question before drawing a line under an answer to a different one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fossils Posted May 17, 2009 Author Share Posted May 17, 2009 Sorry Fosils, I was using sarcasm. The point being, I don't think we are supposed to be discussing such things anymore as the Isle of Man is dead good at dealing with money and things and we are supposed to be showing the world that we have an ace reputation and we don't fuck-up or anything when it comes to dealing with £millions. As I understand: The original budget was £46million. Actually quite a lot for a New Hospital back in the 1990s. In a nutshell, the original 'Contractor' went bust and so the price rose to £111million. Anyway, MEA anybody? Apologies from me, %age. How could I be expected to recognise sarcasm? Thanks for the £46million figure. That rings a bell, and the final figure still rings alarm bells. Don't mention the MEA yet. I'm saving that for another thread.

fireblade paul Posted May 17, 2009 Share Posted May 17, 2009 Check Tynwald Hansard, or iomonline.co.im or gov.im news releases another part to the question ( new nobles hospital) when this was completed , the old site was to be flattened and used for housing etc, as the new hospital would accomodate everything and more . then why have they been redoing up the old one and is going to be by this dept and anyother dept. they have a demolition contract out for the small bit in the middle. what is going on here , another mea and all the consultants etc walk away with big fat cheques and nobody asks a question, what the f--k is this island coming to, never mind mp expenses fraud, that is nothing to this , they should bring the fraud sqaud over here , and check some figures over goverment contracts etc, they would need to build another 2 prisons for the customers ?
