LARGER PROJECTS A community wishing to instal a large-scale water supply can obtain a State subsidy for a reasonable project. In the past, subsidies, chiefly to needy individuals, were granted by the Health Department. At present the Maori Affairs Department has finance available for water supplies, under the Maori Social and Economic Advancement Act. The Ratana Trust Board was granted £1010 recently to help install a 10,000-gallon concrete supply tank, a new bore, and a submersible water pump, together with approximately 1800 feet of main line reticulation. Although each case is considered on its merits, the principle is that such grants may meet up to half the cost of taking the water from the source of supply to the streets in the villages. Connection of the water with community buildings may also be subsidised, but it is left to the owners of individual houses to take the supply from the streets to the homes.
