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.
