and at Appendix H is given a list of all new building projects in the Public Works Programme completed during the year.
2.04. The professional staff of the Architectural Office comprises architects, quantity surveyors, building surveyors, structural engineers, electrical engineers and air-conditioning engineers. The office also has its own outdoor staff comprising clerks of works, electrical inspectors and air-conditioning inspectors, together with subordinate inspectorate staff, who undertake the supervision of the building and maintenance programmes.
## ARCHITECTURAL DIVISIONS
Chief Architect, Division I:
W. E. LEVIE, Dip.Arch., A.R.I.B.A.
Chief Architect Division II:
WONG Ting-tsai, B.Sc.(H.K.), A.R.I.B.A.
2.05. All architects were engaged on new works and were in two divisions, each under a Chief Architect. Division I was sub-divided into 2 groups, each consisting of a Senior Architect, 4 architects, 4 assistant architects and normally 7 architectural assistants. Division II had 2 groups with similar complements and a third and smaller group whose principal responsibility was the large Resettlement and Government Low Cost Housing programme. In addition to the architectural groups there were two Senior Architects who, with supporting staff, assumed responsibility for individual major projects.
2.06. Each architectural group dealt principally with the new building programme for specific Government departments, whilst other buildings designated 'general' were distributed amongst the groups. This system of allocating the building programme of a specific department to a particular group simplified liaison with the departments concerned. Without undue specialization, it enabled each group to continue building up a background of experience of the building requirements of the client departments, thereby facilitating a better output of work.
2.07. Early consultations on all projects were held between architects, structural, electrical and air-conditioning engineers and quantity surveyors. In the same way, comments and advice from the Maintenance Division on the behaviour of materials were also received.
