Archives Regulations (Statutory Rules 1984, No. 100) which were made on 6 June 1984, inter alia prescribe charges to apply to a Commonwealth institution in respect of the keeping of records of that institution. Schedule 2 of the regulations lists those Commonwealth institutions to which such charges may be applied.
The Archives Regulations (Amendment) has been drafted as the result of a review of Schedule 2. Three Commonwealth institutions which were omitted from Schedule 2 are now listed and two which should not have been included have been deleted.
