Consul Riley,
On behalf of the Ministry of Finance I would like to request your formal approval for a funding increase to the expansions of the Canberra Star City Manufacturing Section. With the completion of the station's physical expansion under Project DORIC, we have room for approximately four times the industrial space that we did before. We expect that in addition to allowing for a 20% reduction in cost to remanufacture and repair ships and shipborne equipment, it will add another five thousand public-sector jobs and enable us to be able to produce next-generation equipment to refit our relatively small military fleet with the technological edge that it needs.
We are requesting an increase to the Ministry of Engineering 827 A.S. budget of 350 million credits, retroactively introduced. We believe that this will be best filed split between the existing line items of "Reprocessing Facilities - Enhancements" and "Public Works Projects".
Warmest regards,
Tobiah Nitzan
Arbitrator for the Offices of the Quartermaster and Public Works Natio Octavarium Ministry of Finance
