Abstract
The Archives Act 1983 positions all executive, legislative and judicial records as " Commonwealth records ".
However, with respect to the constitutional separation of powers, the Act excludes legislative and judicial records
from its scope of application regarding the ‘Dealings (disposal, destruction etc.)’ with and access to these records.
In particular, the " Archives (Records of the Parliament) Regulations " provide for a separate set of rules governing
the powers and management of parliamentary records. This paper examines the structure of systems for managing
parliamentary records in Australia and how they operate.
