expenditure under "Typhoon and rain-storm damage and emergency repairs' was considerably less than in 1966-67, due to fewer typhoons and rainstorms.

Head 60-63--Public Works--Non-Recurrent

2.15. The Public Works Programme is accounted for under three main Heads of non-recurrent expenditure, namely Buildings, Civil Engineering and Waterworks. In addition, there is a further non-recurrent head styled 'Headquarters'. This accommodates items of capital expenditure of a miscellaneous nature: e.g. 'Compensation for surrenders and resumptions of Crown land', which are outside the Public Works Programme. The accumulative total non-recurrent expenditure for the year was $360,800,000: i.e. $99,680,000 or 21.6% less than that estimated and 24.8% less than the previous year's actual expenditure. The reasons for this shortfall in actual expenditure are given in paragraphs 1.05 to 1.07. A 'Statistical Summary of Non-Recurrent Expenditure' at Appendix G sets out under each non-recurrent Head, the actual expenditure against the approved provision for the year.

2.16. The following comparative statement illustrated graphically at Appendix D shows public works expenditure over the ten years 1958-59 to 1967-68.
