Still not clear when Trompsburg Hospital will open─── REFILWE GAESWE 09:39 Sat, 25 Oct 2014
Trompsburg - It remains unclear when the Trompsburg Hospital will start operating.
After several attempts to get comment, it seems the Free State Department of Public Works seems to be dodging the matter.
Public Works’ spokesperson Winkie Direko, vaguely explained that they are an implementing agent in the execution of infrastructure projects on behalf of the Department of Health.
Direko says the Trompsburg Hospital project will be handed over to the department of health, as upon practical completion.
Trompsburg Hospital was built in 2011 and public works reported last year that the hospital will officially be opened in September 2013.
Earlier this month the provincial legislature committee’s chairperson Lucy Mapena said they visited the hospital and there was no one who could provide proper answers on when the hospital will be handed over to the Department of Health.
