This scheme is being dealt with by the county council on their own responsibility under the new devolved procedures. The scheme will be financed from a composite loan to cover the council's expenditure on devolved works in 1973-74, which will be sanctioned when this year's capital allocations have been determined early next month. In the meantime, it is open to the council to make arrangements for the commencement of work on the scheme.
