(ii)                Repair and maintenance works on Traffic Centres.

 

(iii)               Cleaning of Motorway and some public Beaches.

 

(iv)              Landscaping and embellishment works across the island.

 

(v)                Maintaining a nursery and a greenhouse so as to have a stock of plants for use at the Head Office and for rental to other  Ministries/Departments and socio-cultural organizations.

 

(vi)              Assist various Government and Non Government Organisations by providing labour for various tasks including cleaning, repairs, transportation of equipment, masonry, painting, carpentry works etc.
