In 2008/09 DPMC commenced a significant capital project for the conservation of Government House Wellington, which is the official residence of the Governor-General and is almost 100 years old. The project follows intensive condition surveys and investigations and is intended to make the House fit for purpose for the next 50 years.
A specialist project manager and suitably qualified teams of architects, engineers and quantity surveyors have been brought together to execute the project. Rebuilding commenced in 2008, with the House to be ready for reoccupation in the latter part of 2011. During 2009/10 DPMC will continue to monitor and review progress against project milestones and ensure that all expenditure remains within the agreed parameters. At the request of the Prime Minister the department has identified savings it could make on the project, resulting in a reduction of the project scope.
