I move:—
That a supplementary sum not exceeding £650 be granted to defray the Charge which will come in course of payment during the year ending 31st March, 1947, for the Expenses of the Maintenance of Criminal Lunatics in the Dundrum Asylum (8 and 9 Vict., c. 107).
There is not very much to be explained in connection with this Estimate. Increased salaries to the staff account for the greater part of the sum asked for. The balance is made up of small items with regard to uniforms, travelling expenses and an adjustment in the farm expenses. The farm costs more but the appropriations are also increased.
