The objective of this project will be for the appointed researcher to produce a comprehensive written history of the Department’s first 50 years in existence, based on a full and thorough examination of the primary source evidence available in the Department’s files and other sources as identified. While there is scope for the individual researcher to shape the overall direction and narrative of the project, efforts should be made to trace the key developments within the Department during this period, to analyse the overall impact of key decisions taken and to effectively place those decisions within a wider historical context.
