Chris Bishop: Infrastructure Minister on 35,000 people marching for Dunedin hospital project - The Mike Hosking Breakfast

An estimated 35,000 people marched in Dunedin over proposed downgrades to the city’s new hospital project.

Protesters were calling on the Government to keep its promise on the build - but the Government says the project is blowing out by billions and overspend would affect infrastructure in other regions.

Infrastructure Minister Chris Bishop tells Heather du Plessis-Allan “it’s an extremely complex project” and the Government is being as transparent as it can be.
