- Abstract
The series consists of dossiers compiled for those persons investigated in NSW during World War II. Dossiers, one for each person, were arranged numerically, with all papers being placed in large envelopes.
Most of the dossiers refer to un-naturalized aliens, particularly 'enemy' aliens, and refugees eg; German, Polish, Italians and other subjects include naturalized aliens, British citizens and Australians.
The dossiers were originally created by the NSW State Police, Military Police Intelligence Section until 1942; at that date their creation was the responsibility of the Security Service.
