The cost of construction of 24 miles of
feeder roads at £100,000 appears to be excessive,
but feeder roads are clearly an essential to
development. In the circumstances it is
suggested th t £50,000 might be allocated to
feeder roads for the time being, to be spread
over the next two years, and that the position
should then be reviewed.
Hera again the costs appear to be on th@
high side, and it is sug «sted that 250,000
should be allocated for this purpose, to be
spread over the next two years, and that the
position should then be reviewed,
The fertiliser factory should be run as far
as possible on commercial lines. The project
appears, however, somewhat experimental und
in these circumstances, it is suggested that it
should be financed on the basis of 50% 0.0. à 5.

The estimates for this desirable project
fur too low. An irrigation
engineer, if he can be ootained at the age
level contʊmplɛted, will cost with passages,
superannuation, ete., not less than 21,200 -
*1,500 per annum, His subordinate staff vil1
involve an expenditure of an equal amount and
for expenditure on works a vum equal to at
least double the total cost of salaries should
be allowed if technical skill is not to be
wasted. For a five-year echeG
estimate of £45,000 should be the mðra áronse
budgeted for.
