QUEEN'S PIER.

WHEN WILL IT BE READY?

Some pertinent questions about the delay in completing the new Queen's Pier were asked.by, the Hon. Mr.A. O./Lang at Thursday afternoon's meeting of the Legis- lative Council Finance Committee, Mr. Lang said he should like some information as to when Queen's Pior was likely to be completed. The Director of Public Works: The iron work will be completed by the end of the year, but there has been considerable delay as regards the masonry of the approach to the pier,

Hon. Mr. Lang: It has taken a long time. At one time it was mpoted that the pier would be the Prince of Wales' open at arrival.

The Chairman (the Colonial Secretary): That could not have been done because" plans for the antrance were not passed until after the Prince of Wales' visit. The plans, I think, were passed before February a very short time before I went on leave.

The Director of Public Works: The pier was damaged by the typhoon/mig,

The Chairman: When will the whole of the work be completed?

The Director of Public Works: In about nine months.

The Chairman: But the pier will j be open for traffic before that.

The!:Director of Public Works:

I think it will be better not to open

it for traffic until it is finished

Hon Mr. Lang: The work was started about two and a half;

5 Years ago.

The Chairman: About October, 1921, rather over two years ago,
