A written question tabled to Health Minister Andrew Green from Deputy Sam Mézec asked for a breakdown on the cost of branding, video recording, advertising and materials for the website, which has been produced to provide information to Islanders as part of the consultation over the site for the new hospital.

It was revealed that £12,720 had been spent on creating videos and the Deputy claimed that approximately 72 minutes of ‘basic footage’ was produced.

He tabled a further written question to Senator Green this week asking for justification for putting together footage at a cost of £177 per minute and in response, Senator Green’s written answer says that the sum was ‘very small’ compared to the overall size of the future hospital project and a ‘professionally delivered’ video would be expected for it.
