The provision of £197,000 for coast protection works in 1981 is considered adequate by the Commissioners of Public Works. The amount of £225,000 provided for coast protection works in 1980 allowed for exceptionally heavy expenditure in maintenance of completed schemes which it is anticipated will not be repeated in 1981.
