(a) No.
(b) Under the Project Agreement (available on the Department of Treasury’s website) a licence fee payment is due to the Queen Elizabeth II Medical Centre (QEIIMC) Trust in return for Project Co (Capella Parking) retaining the revenue from the At-Grade parking. To the end of March 2016, licence fees to the value of $3,797,656 have been paid to QEIIMC Trust.
(c) The amount paid to Capella Parking for concessions on parking (i.e. “subsidised parking scheme”, where the decision has been taken to not charge the gazetted rate for car parking for eligible patients) in 2014-15 was $20,990.73 and in 2015-16 (to March 2016) is $13,394.00. Note, this scheme is not available to staff.
