New mental health beds promised by the Tasmanian State Government are facing delays due to a lack of available space in which to move current medical specialists.

10 new beds were expected to be provided by March 2019 at the Mistral Place facility, however the time frame is now an area of uncertainty.

A further 15 beds are also estimated to be given to the Peacock Centre in the next two years, however the government has not given further comment on the certainty of this.
