Included in subhead 4 (non-recurrent defence works) is a revote for the construc- tion of a Civil Aid Services Training Centre in Hong Kong, on which it was not possible to begin work in 1956/57. The increase of $225,000 on this subhead is accounted for by projects for the Civil Aid Services which experience, supported by the recommendations of a Civil Defence expert from the United Kingdom, has shown to be required. Provision under the other subheads is either the same as for the current year, or is reduced.
