Question No. 6655

To ask the Minister for Health whether an update can be provided on the progress of the building of hostel-like accommodation for foreign healthcare workers.


Answer

The Ministry of Health (MOH) and MOH Holdings (MOHH) are setting up hostel-type accommodations to house foreign healthcare workers who are new to Singapore and employed by the public healthcare institutions. This eases their entry into Singapore. MOHH will have capacity to house about 2,000 occupants across five sites by end-March.
