Mr. HERBERT MORRISON

It is estimated that approximately 2,520 men months of employment will be provided on the work. The total estimated cost is about £105,000, of which the acquisition of land, compensation for severance and the like represents £3,100. Constructional works (including wages and material) account for the remainder.
