---|---|
Title | Home Office: Publicity and Public Relations (PTY Symbol Series) Files |
Date | 1949-1986 |
Description | Files from the Home Office PTY (Publicity and Public Relations) series. The subjects covered form part of the functions and responsibilities of the Public Relations Branch. The files relate to Home Office involvement in the preparation, presentation and release of publicity material concerning prisons and borstals, civil defence recruitment campaigns, including the appointment of the Mabane Committee, assisting with the preparation of radio and television broadcasts, contributions to the press and the Municipal Year Book by various Home Secretaries, and press references to former enemy agents. |
Arrangement | The papers in this series are arranged in numerical order by departmental file number. The inclusion of a date preceding a file number (as in PTY (1959) 1/31/1) indicates that the year in which the file was created was included in the file reference number. Thus the full departmental reference of a file listed as PTY (1959) 1/31/1 would be PTY/59 1/31/1. |
