This sub-series consists of briefings to the Minister that were prepared and managed by the Honourable David Collenette's ministerial office during his tenure as Minister of National Defence. These briefings include situation reports, and cabinet-level material relating to Canada's defence and foreign affairs matters as well as legal documentation relating to military personnel. Some of the subjects found in this series include: closing of military bases across Canada; Human Rights Complaints; Claims against the Crown; Canada's military deployment overseas; Court Martial Appeals; Military Force Reduction Program; Minister's meetings with foreign diplomats; Military Appointments and Canadian Patrol Frigates.

Each file includes a file number that specifies the year that the file was created. The first portion of the Briefings 1993-1994 has a four-digit file number. The material dated 1994-1996 has a seven-digit number and includes a document number. Some of 1994-1996 files have multiple file numbers attached to the file. When a file includes multiple file numbers the files are differentiated by a letter of the alphabet.

This sub-series includes two sets of files: briefing note and briefing note in subject. The contents of the files are the same for both. All of the files include a briefing note to the Minister and occasionally other pieces of supporting documentation.
