Government Gazettes are a unique, useful and extremely fascinating resource
for local, family and social historians and researchers in other fields
throughout Australia. They are published by governments and their agencies as a
means of communication to officials and to the general public. Gazettes
therefore contain a range of valuable and interesting content such as the
following list of information:
- acts of parliament
- government appointments, resignations and transfers, including: Justices
of the Peace and returning officers
- government departments
- insolvents
- land acquisitions, rentals, sales and leases
- mining and minerals
- petitions
