“My Ministry intends to build a car park building which at the same time will house dormitories for patients’ families on the upper floor of the building.
“The design and construction is underway and will take two or three weeks to complete,” he said.
He hoped the people would be patient while his Ministry worked out a solution, as it was not a simple task.
He said his Ministry required co-operation from the Federal Health Ministry.
