2019 Liechtenstein hospital referendum
The 2019 Liechtenstein hospital referendum was a referendum held in Liechtenstein on 24 November 2019. The referendum was called to decide on the construction of a new hospital in the country.
Background[edit | edit source]
The existing hospital in Liechtenstein, the Liechtensteinisches Landesspital, had been facing issues related to outdated infrastructure and the need for modernization. The government proposed the construction of a new hospital to replace the old facility, which led to the decision to hold a referendum to seek the approval of the citizens.
Proposal[edit | edit source]
The proposal put forward in the referendum was to build a new hospital with modern facilities and equipment to provide better healthcare services to the residents of Liechtenstein. The new hospital was planned to be located in Vaduz, the capital of Liechtenstein.
Campaign[edit | edit source]
The campaign for the referendum saw active participation from various political parties, healthcare professionals, and citizens. Proponents of the new hospital argued that it was essential for improving healthcare services and ensuring that the country had a state-of-the-art medical facility. Opponents raised concerns about the cost of the project and the potential impact on the national budget.
Results[edit | edit source]
The referendum resulted in a majority of voters approving the construction of the new hospital. The final vote count showed that a significant percentage of the population supported the proposal, leading to the government's decision to proceed with the project.
Aftermath[edit | edit source]
Following the approval of the referendum, the government began the planning and construction process for the new hospital. The project was expected to take several years to complete, with the aim of providing improved healthcare services to the residents of Liechtenstein.
