However, the board took the view that it shouldn’t meddle with the problem. As a result of the recent trip of board members to Arapuni Mr Rob eertson brought forward a resolution that the board view the lack of cooperation between Governmentengineers and contractors with alarm and failing a settlement a public inquiry should be set up. Mr J. W. Hayden, chairman, said that he would prefer the resolution in the form that the board views with alarm the non-eompletion of the power house and urges expedition.
