BY OLIVIA DILLON

The NSW Coalition has made it's largest pre-election funding commitment to date, with $102 million pledged to redevelop the Scott Memorial Hospital at Scone if re-elected on March 25.

Deputy Premier Paul Toole made the announcement this morning in the ultra-marginal seat of Upper Hunter.

Minister for Regional Health, Bonnie Taylor says the redevelopment will deliver a new state-of-the-art hospital building, consolidating services now at different sites across the hospital campus.

The commitment also includes an upgrade to worker accommodation.
