C1/1-7 comprise College working party members' copies of minutes and papers, probably removed from the file series of the College presidents. The series peters out in 1974, and there are no further records in Presidents' papers from this time. The committee may therefore have been disbanded in 1974, but there is no information on file to confirm this.

The records of the Sub-committee on the Registration of Specialists at C1/6-7, on the other hand, probably comprise the official record of the sub-committee, as Sir John Peel, later RCOG president (1966-1969), was chairman from 1964-1966.
