Staff increases are necessary due to the increased activities of the department in operating a 24-hour forecasting service at the airport and the new storm warning radar station at Tate's Cairn.
Under Other Charges Annually Recurrent, there is a decrease of $45,000 in "Upper Air Inves- tigation" due to the cessation of activities connected with the International Geophysical Year. Cable & Wireless Charges are increased due to normal salary increments.
