The Architectural Branch is divided into five Divisions. Divisions I and II are responsible for the bulk of the building programme, with projects grouped by client departments. Some buildings are designated 'departmental' and handled by specific Government Departments, whilst other buildings designated 'general' are distributed amongst the groups. This system simplifies liaison with the departments concerned and enables each Group to acquire a background of experience of the building requirements of their client Departments. Division III is responsible for that part of the housing programme entrusted to the Office in addition to a number of other projects such as crematoria, standard clinics and recreation grounds. Also in Division III is a minor works group, headed by a senior Architect, which deals with the very large number of minor projects in the Programme, many of them on behalf of the Urban Council. Division IV is responsible for military and defence works projects generally and Division V is responsible for the works programme involved in relocating the Headquarters of the British Forces in Hong Kong at H.M.S. Tamar and relocating at Sek Kong those services, including the Royal Air Force, currently stationed at R.A.F. Kai Tak.

Details of some of the many projects undertaken by these five Divisions, which were under construction or were completed during the year, are given in paragraphs 4.38 to 4.98.
