Files in the National Archives of Australia withheld from public access in 2017
This CSV file contains details of
records held by the National Archives of Australia that were examined
for release but withheld from public access in 2017. These files have an
access status of 'Closed' in the NAA's online database.
The
data of all files with an access status of 'Closed' was harvested from
the NAA database on 1 January 2018. This was then filtered down to those
with an access decision recorded sometime in 2017.
Similar datasets will be made available on an annual basis.
The
fields in the CSV file are: barcode, control symbol, title, series,
series title, contents dates, contents start year, contents end year,
access status, access decision reasons (multiple values), access
decision date (iso formatted).
The contents start year and end year have been parsed out of the original date string.
The
access decision reasons are a list of the grounds on which access was
withheld. These have been normalised to some extent to separate out
references to multiple clauses of the Archives Act.
