Series note

Function and purpose

This series is a card index to correspondence with various people and organisations. The index is made up of seven sections divided as follows: (1) the basic name index for persons (Aariens to Zywczak); (2) the organisations name index which includes geographical locations AI Hire Company to ZYG Book Binding Works); (3) a name index of ministers second Fraser Ministry (Aldermann to Withers); (4) a Parliamentary name index which lists the names of Commonwealth Members of Parliament, Senators and State Members (Abel to Young); (5) the State Premiers and Treasurers name index; and (6) Departments and authorities index (Aboriginal Affairs to Works) and (7) a name index to correspondence with Ministers (Aderman to Young).

Sections 1,2,3, 4 and 7 are on 12x8cm cards; section 5 and 6 are on 20x12cm cards. Because of the size of cards used Sections 5 and 6 were located after the Subject index (CRS A3716).

When the Departments of Treasury II , and Finance were established in December 1976 it was decided to microfiche the index, supply copies to both departments and transfer the index cards to archival custody.
