To such a proposat there are. the following strong objections : -
(a) The change will not affect the object in view, which is ostensibly the saving in time in passing plans for buildings and house-drain- ags work. The roads (including altorations of levels, diversions, etc.), water works, storm water drainys, sewerage, oncroachments over Crown land, whether of a permanent type by the arection of verandahs and balconies or of a temporary nature by erection of hoardings and scaffoldings, will still be in the hands of the other Building Authorits (the Director of Public Works), and cross references will still be necessary and the

th.) How is the line to be drawn between the baildings to be nuder the control of the Baild ing Authority of the Sanitary Board and those to be under the control of the Director of Pabi e Works in his capacity as Buliding Authority?
The only system that appears likely to ho successful would be to allow certain areas to the former and the remaining areas in the Colony to the latter.
That is the system adopted where a Muni. cipality exists in other Crown Colonies, bat such municipalities also exercise control over the ronde, sewers and, in some cases, over the water werke as well, within their boundaries.

It is not proposed to adopt the principal re- commendations ander this heading for the following reasons :-----
1. It t is considered absolutely necessary that there should be an administrative head of the Sanitary Department and it is proposed to appoint as cficer who shall be able to devote the whole of his time to the department.
In this course Sir Matthew Nathan agreed

ense of opinion arises with the Executive Engineer who performs all the ordinary duties. imposed on the Building Authority, the matter is at esce referret to the Ligh authority of the Director of Public Work
It is obvions that an Executive Enginoor on 1000 a year will not he an vilicer of sufficient stanting to deal sccessfully with the practising engineers and architects in the Colony on the tury many kulty points that will constantly srice batween them in which the interests of property owners (the employers of the axid engineers and architects) and what are after all the interests of the public at large will slash,
Nor would auch an Excostive Begineer carry sufficient weight to impose his will on his mas- ter:the members of the Sanitary Burd-the only one of whom whe has any technical en- giacering knowledge is the Director of Public Works.
Let it he supposed for a moment that prac tising architecis do not accept a ruling of the Board's Building Authority and appeal to the Board. Where is the Board to seek advice in such a case but from the Director of Public Works? A soares of friction is thus at : ce opened between the two authorities.
object in view 1. It is considered that the namely, the saving of circumlocution in passing plans and the facilitation of construction work nader the Ordinance generally, can be attained in a much simpler way by some such serange- ment as is sketched in the Directer of Public Works' minute of the 18th of April, 1907, and the Government ig quite willing to discuss the details of such an arrangement.
5. Finally it is proper to s'ate that when the Director of Public Works' minute of the 18th April had been considered by Sir Matthew Nathan the latter left on record a minute in which he expressed his agreement with the objections which the Director of Public Works has raised to this proposal of the Commissionero. 6. There are minor points in the paragraphs under the beading new scheme which will re seire consideration.
