Series comprises records that Gillespie took from Ottawa back to Toronto in 1979 after the end of his Parliamentary career. A few records were added during his first few months in Toronto. The papers are memoranda, reports, speeches, correspondence, reference material, briefing material, newspaper clippings, self-memoranda, and personal notes. Almost half the records in this sub-series are his speeches during his eleven years in Parliament; smaller quantities of records document more personal issues - correspondence with politicians, the 1979 election, and family and private matters; other records document work he did as a cabinet minister such as the trade missions to Cuba and to the Soviet Union; other records document business or energy issues, ideas, and technologies.

The records are structured into seven sub-series. Some of those sub-series, especially the smaller or more personal sub-series, were created from accumulated files. These records were probably drawn from various personal sub-series maintained in Ottawa; they appear to have been considered personally significant, biographical, or useful for future energy and economic reference.
