Other papers may relate to the identification of a suitable site and its acquisition whilst a large proportion of correspondence on files in this series concern requests for renovations, repairs and equipment and copies of the requisitions issued for the provision of these. Much of the correspondence is annotated by action officers with indications of opinion and recommendations.
