Answer

No detailed cost plan or budget for the project to fit out the Ministry for Cities, Environment, Regions and Transport's (MCERT) new office accommodation has been approved. MCERT will largely reuse the existing furniture and fit-out currently used by the Ministry of Education at 1 The Terrace or furniture and equipment provided by other government agencies. This is expected to greatly minimise the moving and fit-out costs incurred by MCERT.
