b) To protect the natural environment from further damage by
(i) discouraging the unnecessary depletion of natural resources through waste management, recycling and otherwise.

c) To promote training and education, particularly in such skills as may assist the participants in obtaining paid employment.
d) To relieve unemployment in such ways as may as be thought fit, including assistance to find employment.
e) To relieve ill health and promote good health, particularly among residents of the Operating Area.
f) To provide within the Operating Area facilities for recreation and other leisure time occupation available to the public at large with a view to improving their conditions of life.
