is there anything wrong wit the current location? why not keep the current location and turn the Red House into state offices, or a museum?
I kinda like the idea of the red house. 400 mil is plenty, we should at least discuss the necessity, and the amount.jhonnieblue wrote:Seriosuly it would be cheaper to mash that old crap down and build a new building..bit like anyone gives a crap about it

Anyway every country should where possible try to maintain there historical buildings, whether it red, yellow, brown or green.
Can you imagine what would happen if the UK decided it would make more money/cost less to tear down the Houses of Parliament and replace it with housing, or the US to replace the White House with a private airport...sometimes a city's building help define it at the Red House does that (not by itself) for POS
You're talking to Philistines who rather have our historical pieces destroyed for something more modern. They care not of the history of our land or anyone's for that matter.
They're the kinda people who go Cuba on vacation and asking where the TGIF.

Opening of Wards 18 and 20 at the EWMSC
Friday, January 15, 2016
Overcrowding and insufficient bed space at public hospitals is a problem experienced worldwide and comes as a result of a variety of factors. Nevertheless, the Ministry of Health, in its continued efforts to ensure quality healthcare, has taken steps to address this issue with the opening of two new wards at the Eric Williams Medical Sciences Complex.
The Eric Williams Medical Sciences Complex was a pay for service institution until 2005 when all services were made free to citizens. One of the implications of this transition was that the average number of patients seen in the Accident and Emergency Department increased from approximately 5000 annually to approximately 72,000. While this increase in patient load was also accompanied by an increased number of services, there was not a similar increase in capacity at the facility; this has been a key contributor to the overcrowding experienced at the Accident and Emergency Department.
Another major contributor to overcrowding is the use of emergency departments by scores of patients who should properly access care at local health centres. For example, visiting the accident and emergency departments to dress minor wounds or injuries when care for these is adequately provided at local health centres.
It is therefore anticipated that the opening of two new wards at the facility will reduce the recurring challenge of overcrowding at the hospital. Ward 18 is the Adult Admitting Ward, which will serve as a holding bay and filter clinic-facilitating patients who are to be warded on both the Adult Medical and Adult Surgical Wards and are waiting to be placed in beds. Ward 20 is an extension of the Adult Medical Ward 4 and would accommodate the overflow of patients who belong to that ward.
These new wards will bring the total adult bed space at the facility to 450.

Will every single patient be moved to these wards? What happening to the ones in the older wards that Gladiator asked about restoring/upgrading?

A Restoration Committee has been established to oversee the restoration of President’s House, the Red House, Stollmeyer’s Castle, Whitehall and Mille Fleurs. The committee is chaired by Prime Minister, Dr the Honourable Keith Rowley and comprises Minister of Finance, the Honourable Colm Imbert; Minister of Planning and Development, the Honourable Camille Robinson-Regis and Attorney General the Honourable Faris Al Rawi.
The committee met on Wednesday and received a status report on the Red House restoration. At that meeting decisions were made with respect to the scope of works for that project, and a time frame for acceleration of completion of those works.
It was also decided that the original scope of works which involves construction of additional Parliamentary space will not be pursued. The restoration will be confined to the Red House for housing of the Parliament. The additional space, which would have been catered for in any new construction, would instead be accommodated at Cabildo Building, situated just west of the Red House.
It is to be noted that the current occupants of the Cabildo Building are scheduled to move shortly into the Legal Affairs Towers of the Government Campus, thereby freeing up space which can satisfy the Parliament’s needs.
In light of these decisions it was also concluded that the existing tender exercise be aborted and that the architectural designs be reviewed to take into account the effect of these decisions.
The Urban Development Corporation of Trinidad and Tobago (Udecott) , in consultation with Parliament, is to report back to the committee on these decisions by the first week of March. Thereafter, new tenders will be invited for the restoration of the Red House, with a completion date for the works to be established after full consideration of the exercise.
Today , the Prime Minister led the restoration team and other officials from the Office of the Prime Minister, (Udecott) and others on a tour of Stollmeyer’s Castle, White Hall, Mille Fleurs and President’s House.
Udecott has also been instructed, along with the restoration experts, to complete the work at Stollmeyer’s Castle and to prepare to commence work at Whitehall. The use to which Stollmeyer’s Castle is to be put will be the subject of a future decision of the Cabinet.
