In the Historical archive you will find information from previous governments such as press releases, news and speeches from previous government periods. You will also find outdated current affairs from the sitting government. In addition the archive contains documents where the content is no longer valid, such as expired circulars.
Content that has been moved to the archive will not be updated and the information is therefore exclusively of an historical nature.
