Machine-read 6
Reporting boundary
First appears as a NEW work in the 2023-24 edition, so the 2023-24 'Program' figure is the total approved program for the project per the budget paper's own glossary. Absent from the 2026-27 edition's capital works table, consistent with the 2026-27 Regional Overview statement that construction is complete. Note the $18.3 million per annum figure in the 2026-27 Regional Overview is OPERATING funding to open and run the ward, not capital.
