8.01. The total expenditure by the Department amounted to $732,815,000. This included works carried out by Consultants and is 21.03% greater than the expenditure of $605,449,000 during the previous year. Major public works, including World Refugee Year Schemes ($2,299,000), accounted for some $589,698,000. $70,332,000 was spent on recurrent maintenance work and $72,785,000 on administration, salaries and other charges.
8.02. The following comparative statement illustrated graphically at Appendix A, shows public works expenditure over the ten years 1956-57 to 1965-66. It is to be noted that the Non-Recurrent figures for 1963-64 to 1965-66 include special expenditure incurred during the Water Emergency in 1963 and 1964, mainly on the chartering of tankers. As this specific expenditure cannot be considered to form a part of the overall Capital Expenditure picture it is shown as a separate item in the chart:
