Arrangement
(Information about the filing sequence or logical order of the record)

Arrangement
The files in this series have been transferred in more than one accession. Within each accession they are arranged in the order of their original file references. In some instances a piece includes several files that became attached during the course of their administrative life. In these cases the most recent file is given first in the 'former reference' field of the list, followed by the earlier references.
The series comprises files from more than one record series. The predominant series is an annual numerical series in which the original file references begin with the prefix 'CI'. This is sometimes followed by another letter code (e.g. 'ES'), then normally the unique file number and the year in which the file was raised. This series was apparently preceded by an unprefixed annual numerical series, and by a numerical series that may have been tied to a subject-based filing scheme.
