How to Use:
A variety of access restrictions apply to these files. This is because some files contain personal information, including third party information, on what are otherwise general administrative files. This may have occured because there wasn't a case file created at the time. Consignments five and six are on Open access due to the nature of their contents.
Series notes:
Registered administrative files which may contain personal information.
The master index (AD204) to various series of welfare case files (such as AA226) contains references to some administrative files eg.3/1/2. The sequence 5/16/1 Welfare reports contain extracts from the Supreme Court's Miscellaneous files relating to the custody and guardianship of children.
These records are part of the holdings of the Tasmanian Archives
