- User Conditions:
- Arrangement:
- The file and volume are arranged chronologically by their original A series file number: 60 being the subject reference (Financial) and 20 or 54 being a unique sequential file number, relating to a specific topic within that subject. These are the only two files and volumes to have survived from the financial subject sub-sub-series. The large gaps and high file numbers suggest that many files have been lost. The earlier file, numbered ‘60/20’ is followed by the Roman numeral ‘I’, indicating that it is ‘Part 1’ of a file that was subdivided into two or more file parts. The earlier file also has a second file reference number, ‘C 93’, indicating that it was renumbered into the confidential file series, in which the letter ‘C’ represents the subject category ‘Bahrain’.
