Administrative / biographical background

The Manpower Services Commission (MSC) was formed as a result of the Employment and Training Act 1973. However, MSC was an independent body and reported directly to the Secretary of State for Employment. The files in this series deal with the transfer of work areas from the Department of Employment to MSC.
