The government reminded that earlier it was decided to build a modern and comfortable 7-storey building.
According to the project, there was a ground floor with a total area of 12,528 square meters for 150 beds for children’s and adult oncohematology unit.
«The cost of this facility is 601.3 million soms (without infrastructure and medical equipment). Since the beginning of construction in 2017, 70 million soms have been allocated and in March 2018 — 30 million (with a plan of 50 million soms). The funds were allocated by the Ministry of Finance of the Kyrgyz Republic under Capital Investments item,» the Cabinet informed.
The State Agency for Architecture, Construction, Housing and Utilities under the government was instructed to conduct construction work strictly according to the approved building norms and regulations, taking into account the real possibilities of financing this project from the state budget.
