Provenance

The first instalments of the Garland Papers were presented to the Library by Victor Garland in 1975.

Further papers were received from Sir Victor in London in 1993.

Biographical Note

Ransley Victor Garland, politician, accountant and company director, was born in 1934 and grew up in Perth where he was educated at Hale School and the University of Western Australia. The only son of a professional accountant, Garland himself practised as a Chartered Accountant from 1958-69. He became active in community affairs, serving on a number of charities and on the Claremont Town Council from 1963-70 and in the Liberal and Country League of Western Australia (the W.A. Branch of the Liberal Party) where he held the position of Senior Vice President.

In April 1969 Garland was elected to the Federal seat of Curtin in the by-election resulting from Sir Paul Hasluck's resignation. Curtin, a blue-ribbon Liberal electorate, was held by Garland until early 1981.

During his parliamentary career Garland served as a Minister in the McMahon and Fraser Governments and as Chief Opposition Whip in 1974-75. Under McMahon he was Minister for Supply (1971-72) and Minister Assisting the Treasurer, B.M. Snedden (1972). Following the dismissal of the Whitlam Government and return to power of the Coalition in 1975, Garland was again appointed Minister Assisting the Treasurer and also Minister for Post and Telecommunications He resigned from that post following electoral malpractice allegations, of which he was subsequently exonerated in court. After a period on the backbenches he was reinstated by Malcolm Fraser as Minister for Veterans' Affairs (1977-78) and soon afterwards Minister for Special Trade Representations (1977-79), a portfolio which involved him in a number of overseas negotiations and trips to Europe, the Middle East, North America and Asia. A Cabinet reshuffle in December 1979 saw Garland appointed Minister for Business and Consumer Affairs and Minister Assisting the Minister for Industry and Commerce.

A feature of Garland's political career was his involvement in numerous party and parliamentary committees including the House of Representatives Expenditure Committee (Chairman 1976-77) and Government Members Committees that he chaired on Foreign Affairs (1970-71), Taxation (1970-71) and Treasury (1977). He was also Parliamentary Adviser to the Australian Mission to the UN General Assembly in 1973.

Following the November 1980 elections, Garland left Parliament to take up the appointment of High Commissioner to the United Kingdom, succeeding Sir James Plimsoll. Garland served as High Commissioner from 1981-83. After 1983, Garland worked in London as director of more than thirty public liability companies (including three in the United States of America), some as Chairman. He was also appointed Vice-Chairman of the South Bank Board, established in 1985 to administer the South Bank Royal Festival Hall arts complex in London.

Victor Garland was knighted in 1982.

Series 6. Speeches, 1963-82

In the course of his public life Victor Garland has delivered hundreds of speeches and addresses on formal and informal occasions, including during election campaigns, at Liberal Party and electorate functions, addresses to conferences and seminars, and speeches made while High Commissioner to Britain. Records of many of these speeches were kept and are preserved in the Garland Papers. In this series, speeches made by Garland between 1963 and 1982 and kept in Garland's Canberra and Perth offices have been brought together. Included are printed speeches, speaking notes, drafts annotated by Garland or his staff, and related source and background documents. Some papers relate to the publications of articles based on speeches.

There are two sub series. The first, largely comprising runs of Hansard extracts, contains speeches made by Garland in Parliament together with questions asked during debates (1970-76). The second, larger sub series contains speeches delivered outside the House (1963-82), including some made before Garland entered Parliament and others made while he was a High Commissioner. Occasionally, texts of interviews and TV appearances occur in these speech files.

There are indexes of Garland's speeches as a Minister between 1978-80, compiled by his staff. Arrangement of speeches within both sub series is broadly chronological.

Series 7. Subject Files, 1953-80

This large series of 63 boxes contains papers mostly received from Garland's Perth office. Most span the period from his time as a Minister in the McMahon government up to 1980. There are different sequences of material; some reflect office filing systems, while other papers were kept by Garland's staff for research and reference. There is a wide variety of topics, ranging from Cabinet policy to routine electoral matters. Documents represented include Cabinet and departmental papers (mostly 1971-72), correspondence, copies of articles, cuttings and other printed matter, notes and typescripts by Garland and his staff. There are also papers on the attempted defection of Russian violinist Georgi Ermolenko in 1974, and a libel suit brought against Garland by Senator Syd Negus in the same year.

This series consists of six groups of material, arranged as follows:

(i) Research system. This numbered sequence of files has both subject and personal arrangement. Most papers are in the period 1971-75, and a substantial number are Departmental and Cabinet papers relating to Supply and Treasury matters during 1971-72. The largest subject groups within this system are under the headings Economy, Foreign Affairs, Defence, Attorney-General and Social Security. (files 1 to 388)

(ii) Office papers and subject files. The original order of these files is unknown. (files 389 to 464)

(iii) & (iv) Two sequences of files received from Perth office. Papers on the Ermolenko defection incident are in files 469-475. (files 465 to 487)

(v) Miscellaneous subject files and office research/ reference material. (files 488-590)

(vi) Files concerning a libel writ brought by Senator Syd Negus against Garland and the Weekend news newspaper in 1974. (files 591 to 596)

Copies of original office file lists pertaining to subject files in sub-series (i), (iii) and (iv) have been placed in file 597. These lists provide an indication of the original office filing systems.

Series 16. Minister Assisting The Treasurer, 1971-76

Garland's first Ministerial appointment was in August 1971 as Minister for Supply in the McMahon government. From March 1972 he was concurrently appointed Minister Assisting the Treasurer, Bill Snedden. After the fall of the Whitlam government in 1975 Garland was again appointed to this post while concurrently serving as Minister for Post and Telecommunications. However he held these portfolios only briefly (December 1975 - February 1976) before allegations of electoral malpractice (of which he was later cleared in court) led to his resignation from the Ministry.

Garland's responsibilities as Assisting Minister included dealing with some of the letters received by the Treasurer, assisting in the routine administration of the Treasury, and involvement with the passage of relevant legislation, particularly by representing the Treasurer during the Committee stage of bills.

This series comprises copies of correspondence on a range of matters, mostly related to taxation (1972), and Treasury minutes and information for Garland (1972, Dec. 1975 - Feb. 1976).

Further papers relating to Garland's activities as Minister Assisting the Treasurer may be found in Series 7 and 10.

Series 17. Opposition, 1959-78

In the December 1972 elections, the McMahon Government lost office and was replaced by the Labor Government of Gough Whitlam. Garland was not initially elected to the shadow ministry, but served on a number of parliamentary committees as well as being elected Parliamentary Adviser to the Australian Mission to the United Nations General Assembly in September 1973. He was Chief Opposition Whip in 1974-75 and following Malcolm Fraser's elevation to the Opposition leadership, Garland was appointed Shadow Minister for Public Service Matters, the A.C.T., Women's Issues, and Shadow Minister Assisting the Leader of the Opposition (March -November 1975).

The series contains a variety of papers relating to Garland's activities and interests during his period in Opposition. There are papers on the December 1972 Shadow Cabinet elections, Shadow Cabinet in 1975, party room procedures, Liberal and Country Party policies, Opposition tactics and strategy in parliament, media files, and more general material on subjects such as labour, unions, student activism, immigration and the economy. Six files of documents concern the 1975 Loans Affair.

The groups of papers relating to Garland's Shadow Ministry portfolios of the Public Service, the A.C.T., and Women's Issues comprise a range of material including correspondence with individuals, organisations and interest groups. There are also policy documents, notes, copies of legislation and background material. Subjects represented include the Royal Commission on Australian Government Administration, Commonwealth Superannuation Scheme, long service leave, creation of the Australian Federal Police, A.C.T. policies and ordinances, and Opposition policies for women.

Series 19. Trade Portfolios, 1977-80

After the December 1977 election, Garland succeeded John Howard as Minister for Special Trade Representations. He also assisted Doug Anthony as Minister for Trade and Resources, acting in that portfolio on a number of occasions. Garland's job as Special Trade Representations Minister was in effect to head a small task force of specialists, with the aim of improving Australian access to overseas markets. A particular focus of his attention was the Europe and the European Economic Community. He negotiated a bilateral agreement between Australia and Iraq, and also visited North America, Europe and Asia.

The papers in this series have been arranged in five groupings. With the exception of the first, there has been no attempt to separate papers relating specifically to the Special Trade Representations or Trade and Resources portfolios. Much of the material in the series was created or received in Garland's Special Trade Representations role.

The bulk of the series is from the period 1978-79.

The files in this series are to be replaced and renumbered. Until this work is complete, users should exercise care to maintain the existing order of the files.

(i) Correspondence schedules, copies of correspondence (mostly outwards).

(ii) Cabinet submissions: Departmental minutes (mostly copies), drafts, briefings and other papers.

(iii) Papers on office matters including relations with other departments, finance and budgets, the economy, mining, parliament, the Liberal Party, publicity, travel, and visits by foreign dignitaries. These papers are part of an office filing system.

(iv) Papers concerning industry and business associations, the Crawford Study Group on Structural Adjustment, trade promotion and relations, multilateral trade negotiations, European Economic Community negotiations, and other topics. There are a number of briefs for overseas visits by Garland and others between 1978-80, including his attendance at the 1979 Commonwealth Heads of Government Meeting (CHOGM) held in Lusaka..

(v) Cables.

Series 20. Minister For Business And Consumer Affairs, Industry And Commerce 1977 - 80

From December 1979 until his resignation from the Ministry in November 1980, Garland was Minister for Business and Consumer Affairs and also Minister Assisting the Minister for Industry and Commerce. In the former role he was responsible for business regulation, prices policy, and the administration for protection policy (customs, quotas and tariffs).

This series comprises papers from Garland's Parliament House office files. The great majority concern the Business and Consumer Affairs portfolio. There is a small amount of material interspersed among the BACA papers relating to Garland's concurrent appointment as Minister Assisting the Minister for Industry and Commerce during this period.

In addition to copies of correspondence and minutes, there are papers on a diverse range of subjects relevant to Garland's work as Minister for Business and Consumer Affairs. These include companies and securities, industries, oil and petroleum, textiles clothing and footwear, trade practices, prices, bankruptcy, customs, and tariffs. Included is material on two of the most important areas of Garland's work in the portfolio: amendments to Section 45 of the Trade Practices Act (designed to protect small businesses from coercion by big businesses and unions), and marketing of petroleum products.

The original order of files in this series has not been maintained due to the state of the papers when received. However, in many cases file titles and contents reflect the original system.

There is a considerable overlap of subjects between files in the series. Further papers on Business and Consumer Affairs may be found in series 7.

Series 21. High Commissioner To The United Kingdom, 1977-83

Following the return of the Fraser Government in the November 1980 elections, Garland was offered the post of High Commissioner to the United Kingdom, and took up duty in 1981. In 1983 the Hawke Government appointed A.R. Parsons to replace Garland.

The series contains a variety of material on Garland's period at Australia House, as well as some dating to the time of Gordon Freeth and James Plimsoll as High Commissioners (1979-80). There are office files of correspondence and cablegrams, inquiries about migration to Australia, and papers concerning visitors, especially Australian politicians and officials. Garland's daily program as High Commissioner is recorded in office diaries. Other papers concern invitations received, functions, the running of Stoke Lodge, the involvement of Lady Garland - an accomplished pianist - in music and ballet organisations such as the Royal College of Music. Christmas cards received by the Garlands occupy four boxes.
