These Estimates have been very carefully drawn
up and very fully explained. I do not think we
need regard the deficit to be met from surplus
Balances with any disquiet looking to the large
extraordinary expenditure on the Typhoon Refuge

I would not say anything about the Public
Works Committee. There is a tendency for such
Committees to become more than consultative, and

an enquiry may lead they to think that we are
in favour of referring all works to the Commit-
tee. The unofficial members have ample powers of
criticism in the Council, and the Govt. should
not be hampered in its public works policy -
though they will of course consult the unoffi-
clals when desirable, in order that they may
get the necessary appropriations votes without
friction. Moreover the Gov. can when he wishes
refer works to the Committee, and we can leave
the remarks of the unofficials in the Debate
to make their own impression.
