Ms Kim Smit:

For context, we did always have a lead-lined room for X-raying which was a wet processing facility. X-rays have moved to digital, similar to photography, over the years. In that same area, although slightly different, but close to it, a room was identified where that same lead-lining would be implemented and the X-ray system would be housed there. This was not a brand new situation for us to implement. However, as the director said, after the first three phases of our capital programme, we saw that there were pinch points and stresses and strains and that room was required for another purpose. That is when the search began for an alternative location.
