Records of Private Office and Private PapersFO 11091946-1964Lord Butler of Saffron Walden: Private Office Papers
This series contains R A Butler's private office papers for the period 1956 to 1964. The subjects covered by the files in this series cover a wide range of subjects, not only those relating to the business of the ministries for which Butler was responsible, but other subjects of general concern to the government, to parliament, and to the Conservative Party. There are a few files from the period before 1956, principally relating to Butler's rôles in the Conservative Party, though he was also Chancellor of the Exchequer at that time.
NOTE: private papers of R A Butler are also held by Trinity College, Cambridge, and the Conservative Party Archive and can be accessed via their online catalogues:
