This enables the enquirer to consult the certificate of registration (sequentially arranged in FS 25/3, 4 and 5) or other entries in FS 25/1, 6 and 7, which divulge contact addresses, amalgamations, and other miscellaneous information. The contemporary information in FS 25/1 is duplicated in FS 25/6, with the addition of subsequent information for the trade unions numbered 1-656. |
