I am pleased to advise the Deputy that the refurbishment works on Block 8 are now well advanced and work is scheduled for completion in the coming weeks. In relation to the refurbishment project for Block 4, I can confirm that my Department has in recent days appointed a design team to commence the detailed design work for this project, (block 4). Subject to the design and procurement process it is planned to have this project commence on site in late 2023.
