Series note	Items medium note Function and purpose This series consists of the main correspondence files of the Public Service Board, later the Public Service Commission. The files contain information regarding such matters as departmental structure, pay and conditions, recruitment and staff development. When the Office of the Public Service Board was replaced by the Public Service Commission (CA 6667) on 18 September 1987, a number of functional changes took place. Operational aspects of personnel matters were passed to individual departments. Program budgeting, management improvement programs and classification issues were passed to the Department of Finance (CA 2140). Public Service arbitration, pay and conditions matters were passed to the Department of Industrial Relations [II] (CA 5989). The rest remained with the Public Service Commission. During the period July 1994 to January 1995, file numbers in this series were issued by the Commission to the Public Service Act Review Group. When the Review was finished, the files created by the Group were transferred from the custody of the Commission to the Department of the Prime Minister and Cabinet and were later transferred to Australian Archives under CRS A9930. In October 1993, the Review of the National Board of Employment, Education and Training Board commenced. The Act which established the Board also provided for the Review. The report of the Review was submitted to the Minister of Education, Employment and Training in February 1994. The files generated by the Assistant Commissioner of the Public Service Commission, who was the official representative of the Commission on the Review, were numbered into this series of correspondence files in 1995. No other file series relating to this Review appears to have been registered by the Department of Education, Employment and Training as at March 1996. System of arrangement and control This series is controlled by an annual single number system with an occasional alphabetical prefix.
