VPRS 11418 Dr Ian Allen's Files - Victorian Post-Secondary Education Commission & Policy and Planning Division

Series consists of records accumulated by Dr Ian Allen, Deputy Chair Victorian Post-Secondary Education Commission (VPSEC) 1991-1993 and Director Policy and Planning Division Department of Education 1993-1995.The General Correspondence Files of VPSEC (1991-1993) (see VPRS 11405) and the General Subject Correspondence Files, Multiple Number System (Office of the Secretary) (1993-1995) (see VPRS 11406) have also been transferred to the PRO. Dr Allens records have been retained permanently because Department of Education staff believe that the majority of his records would not be duplicated by these two series of General Subject Correspondence Files, and that his files supplement the two General Subject Correspondence Files series. The three series combined provide a more complete record of the functions and activities of VPSEC 1991-1993, and the policy and planning function for higher education from 1993-1995.
