Sub-fondo 02 - Legacy Records

ca. 100 linear meters

In 2001 certain government departments related to industrial relations and trade were dissolved as their functions were overtaken by the newly formed Commerce Department (2000- ). Hence, some of the records of these departments were inherited by the Commerce Department. Since the creators of these records were not the Commerce Department per se, we created this Subfonds entitled 'Legacy Records' under the Fonds of the Commerce Department. One category of files which was transferred from the Commerce Department to NAM were the files which used to belong to the Department of Trade, hence a Sub Subfond (01) was created for these records.

In this Subfonds one can find the Department of Trade files Sub Subfond (01) which have been transferred to the National Archives of Malta.

These records are located in an off-site repository, thus documents will not be delivered on the same day. Kindly contact the officers in the Reading Room, who will inform you when the next delivery will take place and set an appointment accordingly.

The catalogues for the records which fall under this Subfonds are available at the Reading Room of the National Archives of Malta, Central Archive, Rabat, Malta.
