Head 33. Public Works Recurrent.

Provision under this Head was $143,100 less for

1936 than for 1935, and it will be observed from the frequency

of the footnote "Last year's provision insufficient" that it

has been found impossible to keep within this very restricted

vote. Provision is now increased by $17,500 which still

leaves the total substantially less than in the years previous

to 1936.

Head 34. Public Works Extraordinary.

The total for this Head shows a very striking

decrease compared with former years, provision being confined

as far as possible to commitments and the completion of works

already under construction. Detailed explanations of the

items under this head will be found in the separate memorandum

"Notes on Estimates, Public Works Extraordinary".
