Constituency questions

Oakleigh electorate


Oakleigh electorate

Mr DIMOPOULOS (Oakleigh) (14:50): (5352) My constituency question is to the Minister for Health, and I ask the Minister for Health for information and an update on the construction of the new Victorian Heart Hospital in my electorate in Clayton and what benefits it will bring to my community, the electorate of Oakleigh. The Victorian Heart Hospital, the first of its kind in Australia, is being built right now. Anyone that has travelled down Blackburn Road will see the construction is proceeding at pace. It will be one of those transformative projects, the first ever heart hospital in the country right here on the grounds of Monash University, and it will have untold benefits in terms of research and clinical service. I thank the minister for his tireless work in this portfolio and would appreciate any information and update he can provide on this significant project and what it means for my local community.
