In April 2003, the Public Record Office and the Historical Manuscripts Commission merged to form The National Archives, a new organisation to cover both public records (government and the law courts) and private archives. This is, therefore, the last annual report to cover the work of the Public Record Office. (Please note: the work of the Historical Manuscripts Commission in 2002-03 is covered separately in the HMC annual review for this period).
