Series note

This correspondence series was the main policy and general series for the Northern Territory Administration.

With the appointment of a permanent secretary for the Department of the Northern Territory resident in Darwin this series became the main departmental series.

It contains policy files for the Department and general correspondence files for the administration of the Northern Territory.

In May 2022, the contents of some records within the series were disrupted during transport. As a result, the records may not appear in the original order created by the agency. 

Item ID: 4087504, Control Symbol: 1970/4963. Title: Welfare Branch - Tanumbirini Station - Maintenance of government dependants, was damaged and sustained information loss during transit. Information lost has been partially recovered.

The National Archives has made a copy of this record with recovered information available in series E1699, Series containing copies of damaged Northern Territory census records from series E944 and F1.
