Australian material in the nineteenth-century seessional papers falls into two categories, the first relating specifically to the affairs of the Australian colonies, and the second, contained in the more comprehensive intercolonial papers, relating not only to Australia but to other colonies as well. Examples of the first kind are the report of J. T. Bigge on New South Wales (Irish University Press subject set Australia Vol. 1) and the Colonisation Commission Reports of 1836, 1837-38, 1839 and 1840 (Irish University Press subject set, Australia Vols 5 and 6): the select Committee reports of 1836 and 1837 on Aborigines in British Settlements, where Australian Aborigines, the Kaffirs and the North American Indians are treated of side by side, provide good examples of the second kind (Irish University Press subject set, Aborigines Vols 1 and 2). The subject list which follows contains all the papers relating specifically to Australia throughout the nineteenth century. The intercolonial papers (for example, papers relating to Australia and some other colony or to all the Australian colonies or to Transportation to Australia) will be found in such subject sets as Colonies-General; Anthropology-Aborigines; and Crime and Punishment - Transportation.
