At this stage of the proceedings, the advice of Messrs. Coode, liatthews, Fitzmaurice and Wilson, Consulting Engineers on the improvement of the harbour, was obtained with reference to the proposed scheme of development at North Point. Their report was forwarded on the 7th October

(c). Paras. (6 & 17). Wave-action caused by a strong

N.E. wind particularly during the passage of a typhoon,
