Custodial history
The earliest record of this prefix is in 1990, when it was issued to File Office 334 for the Aids Unit. In 1996 the section split into two parts, both sections wanted to continue to use the AID prefix so it was agreed one part would continue to use AID and the other would use AIDB. Prefix transferred to File Office 176 in November 2002.
