Right hand page includes: (7) Court of committal, (8) Reasons for admission etc. (9) Date of admission, (10) Date of leaving, (11) Where gone to. Notes on contents - (8) Reasons for Admission: This entry often is 'Transfers from Industrial School' or 'Private inmate vide memo from Superintendent' or 'Private inmate vide Weekly Return' (with date). It is therefore possible that more information might be held in correspondence files of the Children's Welfare and Public Relief Department GRG 27/1. From 1914 no entries are made in (2) Name, (3) Age, (4) Date of birth, (5) What relatives and (6) Court of committal columns. Only name and admission and discharge details are given. This corresponds with the appearance of the entry 'vide weekly Return', suggesting more information may be held in those returns. Second half of book is blank.

Access Conditions
A Research Centre Members card, obtainable at the Archives, is required to research records held at State Records.
Although some very early records relating to children in care in South Australia are open for access, most records relating to children are subject to a 100 year restriction, particularly those which contain personal information about individuals. Written permission must be obtained from the government agency which created the record in order to access restricted material. To obtain permission a Freedom of Information (FOI) request form must be submitted to the relevant government department. State Records staff will be able to assist you with this.
