 duties: — * 
 
 (a.) The preparation of plans and specificatiqns for new buildings and works, 
 the erection of which in tho first instance is still carried on under the Public Works

 completed falls upon this Branch, together with their subsequent maintenance in (rood 
 repair. ° 
 
 (*•) Preparation of plans and FpeciCoations for additions, alterations and repairs 
 to all existing works and buildings, tho Branch being likewise responsible for the
