THE GENERAL ASSEMBLY.
m •FJ&CIA- ICIEGRAMI. ■ l mm* ■ - — ■ Wellington, August 16. Mr Stafford to-day gave notice of motion for Wednesday, as follows i-— • " That in the opinion of thia House the administration by the present Government of the Public Works and Immigration policy has been unaatisfactorj^tbat the habitual absence of the members of the Ministry from the seat of Government, which results in their conducting important operations without frequent opportunities of consulting each other, prevents that concert and unity of action between the several departments which is essential to the efficient direction of public affairs, either executive or legislative, and largely increases the coat of government. That in order to administer the Public Works and Immigration policy in the most efficient and economical manner, the Colonial Government should retain the full responsibility for the proper conduct of all works authorised, and the sole control over all sums voted by Parliament, but should, when practicable, avail itself of any existing Provincial and other local machinery in the supervision and execution of sijch works.
