other arrangement has been made with regard to them.

7. With regard to defence works an arrangement has been arrived at by which the Imperial Government bears the cost of the necessary armament and the Colonial Government that of the permanent works and sites. This agreement has reference to certain specified works, the Imperial share of which is under the above arrangement £28,500 and the Colonial share £8,230. At the same time (in March 1897) the War Office agreed that certain services, estimated to cost £11,500, connected with the completion of existing works of defence were to be carried out entirely at War Department expense. No points requiring settlement have arisen with regard to this arrangement about defence works, and there is no proposal to revise it.

The Conference accordingly decided to recommend that a standing arrangement for the future should be concluded on a principle of division of cost similar to that adopted in the case of
