Series consists of five file folders of general reference material accumulated in the central records management office of the department. Two files contain detailed reference material on the creation, powers, and activities of approximately 40 formal and informal federal health advisory committees, boards, panels, and other bodies, including the Dominion Council of Health and a wide variety of specialist groups. The records are arranged by name of committee and include in most cases the instrument creating the unit, its regulations or terms of reference, and/or a historical summary of its activities. There are also lists of committees with further historical annotations. These records were compiled in 1957 by Louise Brommell, Secretary of the Dominion Council of Health, and added to up to 1968. There are two versions of the compilation, one longer and more complete (folder 1) and one shorter (folder 2) but each contains items omitted from the others. Folder 3 contains reference material on the administrative history of the Health component of Health and Welfare, including short historical summaries on various offices, organization charts, and research notes, dated 1937-1973. Folder 4 is the personal agenda file of the Dominion Council of Health's chairman, Dr. J.N. Crawford, containing the agenda, background documentation, and correspondence for the 95th meeting of the Dominion Council of Health, while folder 5 includes material on the 50th anniversary of the Council and a formal report on "Surveillance Procedures of the Canadian Quarantine Service", April 1969.
