Notes	In this catalogue you may find terminology or language included in historical record titles and descriptions that are today considered offensive or pejorative. These terms have been retained in the catalogue in order to reflect the historical accuracy of the record. All such terms will appear in inverted commas and they are in no way representative of views or opinions of the Isle of Man Government in the 21st Century. The only exception where inverted commas have not been used is for administrative bodies that carried the expression 'Lunatic' in their title, as this was the formal name of the institution itself. We apologise for any offence that our inclusion of these words may cause.
Physical Description	Files have been put into archive boxes but remain in original folders with staples and paperclips. Some rusting of paperclips and staples was evident. Individual files are not numbered in any way to connect them to S22/8/3 sub-series; files from C17/25 have are marked with C17/25. Each box in S22/8/3 has a sheet of paper within that notes the number in files in that box.
Arrangement of Series	Arrangement of individual files is alphabetical by surname. Staff files in C17/25 (187 files) were mixed into C17/26 to form S22/8/3. Both runs of files were already in alphabetical order by surname. C17/25 contained some earlier files, but the overlap in time period with C17/26 was enough to justify the combination of the 2. A Word document list of the files in C17/25 was made prior to the combination and can be found in the shared drive.
Access	Closed
Access Conditions	This subseries is currently closed to public access for 100 years under the Public Records Act - Public Records Order 2015 as the records contain sensitive personal information (categories B2, C2).
