Doctors at Sydney’s Royal North Shore Hospital are calling on New South Wales (NSW) Health Minister Jillian Skinner to honour a previously made promise not to divest part of the institution’s grounds. The real estate may generate a gain of $A97m for the NSW Government, but according to the medical practitioners will leave the facility unable to cope with growing demand as the population increases. Medical Staff Council representative Bruce Cooper notes that the hospital will exceed its current capacity in between three and four decades
