EXPLANATORY NOTE

The object of this Proclamation is to commence provisions of the State Records Act 1998 that make provision for the creation, management and protection of records of public offices of the State, provide access to records and establish the State Records Authority. The Proclamation does not commence Part 4 of that Act, which deals with the Authority’s entitlement to the control of State records not currently in use.
