Summary heading

 

Function and purpose

This series was created in 1973 to contain all the confidential, secret and top secret files, which until then, had been registered as part of the main file series (A432). Blocks of numbers were allocated for Crown Solicitor, Parliamentary Drafting Executive, Advisings, and the Administrative area. At the end of 1974, the Department decided to revert to the previous system of registering classified files as part of the main file series.
