The records of the committee have been transferred on an ad hoc basis.
These records have been removed from the President's file on the Court of Patrons to create this series.
This series contains quarterly newsletters; there are only two for 1999 when the newsletter was discontinued. The newsletter gave details about College activites, working party reports and information about the Membership examination. It also listed College appointments, and meetings and courses that might have been of interest to trainees available at the RCOG and externally. A large quantity of circulars were distributed with each newsletter, advertising meetings, RCOG publications and Trainees Committee issues. In addition press releases, working party reports and RCOG guidelines were included in the mailing.
Records were appraised in July 2008 and most of the original series destroyed or removed to current Archives departmental reference files.
No further accruals expected.
As set out above in Scope and Content.
