the land lately resumed to the East of the Gaol, these two floors will become available for other purposes.

5. It is proposed, and I can suggest no better arrangement, that the first and second floors of the entrance block should be appropriated to the male hospital, and the Superintendent's offices.

6. By this arrangement the floor at present used as a male hospital can be added to the female gaol, and the ground floor divided into 17 separate cells. Six separate cells and three associated cells provided on the first floor, approached by a new staircase from the centre of the ground floor, and sufficient accommodation for a female hospital provided on the same floor.

7. This will confine all the females on two floors of one block, and will provide ample accommodation for all present requirements, namely, 25 separate cells, three associated cells, two hospital wards and all necessary bath and latrine accommodation.

8. The new offices for the Superintendent will be much better situated than those at present in use with more air and better light, and approachable from the entrance hall without entering the main gate of the Gaol.

9. The existing offices will be used for reception purposes.
