Government recordkeeping

This section of our site contains information about the services we provide to the State and local government organisations whose records and recordkeeping activities are covered by the provisions of the Archives Act 1983 and are defined in section 3 of the Act.

Our services are focused on providing advice and assistance to help organisations manage their records effectively within the legislative framework established by the Archives Act and formal instruments issued under this Act. The services include:

  • staff training
  • records alerts
  • consultancy services
  • policy and procedural advice

These services are provided primarily through our Records Services Branch which is based at our Berriedale Repository. See contact information for ways to get in touch with the Branch.
