Property and personal disposition records - South Australian Youth Remand and Assessment Centre (GRS/6640)

This series contains a number of different records created by Vaughan House from 1947 to 1979 and South Australian Youth Remand and Assessment Centre from 1979 to 1993. It includes:

"Personal disposition/property advice" forms for South Australian Youth Remand and Assessment Centre from 1978 to 1993. The forms are also referred to as 'Court disposition forms'. The records are in the format of volumes of carbon duplicates of Department of Community Welfare pre-printed forms. The forms acted as a receipt for the movement of an inmate from the Centre to Court, and indicated whether the individual was to be returned to the Centre or released (providing no further detention order was made by the Court). They were filled in by the Supervisor of the Centre, and were forwarded to the Officer in charge of the detention facility of the Juvenile/Children's Court. Information recorded includes: name, date, name of Court, name of Centre, list of property held in safekeeping while in Court and signed acknowledgement of return of property.

"Receipt for mandate and/or person named thereon" forms for South Australian Youth Remand and Assessment Centre from 1978 to 1988. The records are in the format of volumes of carbon duplicates of Department of Community Welfare pre-printed forms. The forms acted as a receipt for the movement of a mandate and/or individual from the South Australian Police to SAYTC. Information recorded includes: police station, mandate number and date, name of individual, name of Centre, physical condition of person, date and time received. Later forms also include a list of property. The forms were filled in by the Supervisor of the Centre, and the original given to the Police.
