Abstract

The Ministry of Agriculture and Agricultural Reforms was established by the Act of the State National Council of December 31, 1944 on the establishment of the Provisional Government of the Republic of Poland. The scope of its competences dates back to the interwar period – so it was the entirety of issues related to agriculture in Poland, breeding, agricultural education at the lower and middle level, agricultural experimentation, veterinary, melioration, regulation and maintenance of rivers and canals, agricultural industry and real estate management. The Ministry of Agriculture and Agricultural Reforms was abolished under the provisions of the Act of May 26, 1951 on the organization of supreme authorities in the field of agriculture.In the initial period, the Ministry's office, of course, also operated on the basis of general regulations applicable to the office work of the Polish Committee of National Liberation, but already on December 1, 1945 separate office regulations entered into force in the Ministry. The general office of the Ministry did not provide any record aids, it only distributed the correspondence received by the office to individual departments and independent offices, according to their competences. In the departments and other independent units, registration was carried out in a record-keeping aid, called the register (which served as a traditional correspondence journal), kept jointly for all departments of a given department. It was only in these departments that the proper registration in the list of the department's affairs took place and the designation was given with a symbol resulting from the substantive structural records scheme of a given unit. As a result, since 1945 the Ministry's office based its operation on a modern system of registration of cases not in the correspondence journal (this was indeed used, but only for initial recording of correspondence), but on the basis of a substantive records scheme.
