Where can I find an agency’s history of administrative changes?

Museums of History NSW tracks NSW Government administrative changes in Collection Search the catalogue of the NSW State Archives Collection. The Collection Search catalogue includes changes to agencies from 1788 to the present day. 

Agencies in Collection Search are linked to record series held as state archives created or controlled by an agency. Further links to former agencies, subsequent agencies and superior agencies, such as departments, provide context to the records held in the State Archives Collection.
