There are three accruals: The first accural (30-1995) consists of files from Allen's constituency office and is arranged into two series: case files; daily journals. Original order has been followed as much as possible. There are five main sets of case files covering the period 1990-1995. Files were arranged in alphabetical order with a letter of the alphabet assigned to each file and any different individual cases filed within each file. Order within each file has been retained. The titles that appear on the files are the original titles; dates have been added in square brackets to the files. Occasionally, an individual case would be assigned its own file. This pattern of organization has also been retained. There is no apparent reason for the decision to open a separate file for some individuals. Some individual files from the 1980s were retained. They have been placed before the file sets begin as has the bound book which lists all cases from 1988 onwards.
