    CENTENARY INDEX To the TRANSACTIONS OF THE THOROTON SOCIETY of NOTTINGHAMSHIRE Volumes 1 - 100 1897-1997 Together with the THOROTON SOCIETY RECORD SERIES Volumes I - XL 1903-1997 and the THOROTON SOCIETY EXCAVATION SECTION Annual Reports1936-40 Compiled by LAURENCE CRAIK ã COPYRIGHT THOROTON SOCIETY AND COMPILER ISBN 0 902719 19X INTRODUCTION The Thoroton Society began to publish the 'Transactions' in 1897. This volume is intended as an Centenary index to all material published in the 'Transactions' from 1897 to 1996, to the contents of the Record Series volumes published from 1903 to 1997, and to the reports of the Excavation Section published between 1936 and 1940. Earlier indexes were published in 1951 and 1977; these are now superseded by this new Centenary index. Contents The index is in two parts: an author index, and an index to subjects, periods, and places. AUTHOR: this lists articles under the names of their authors or editors, giving the full title, volume number and page numbers. Where an article has more than one author or editor, it is listed by title under the name of each author or editor, with relevant volume and page numbers. SUBJECT: The contents of articles are indexed by subject and by place; topics of archaeological importance are also indexed by period. Cross-references are used to refer the enquirer from one form of heading to another, for example 'Abbeys' see ' Monastic houses', or from general headings such as 'Monastic houses' to the names of individual buildings. Place-names in the index are often followed by sub-headings indicating particular topics.

  • Counsel to the Inquiry's Opening Statement
    UNDERCOVER POLICING INQUIRY ___________________________________________________________________ COUNSEL TO THE INQUIRY’S OPENING STATEMENT Contents Part 1 – Overview Part 2 – Tranche 1 Phase 1 Appendix 1 – Groups reported on by the SDS as set out in the Annual Reports 1969 to 1974s Appendix 2 – Phase 1 undercover officers and Phase 1 managers PART 1 – OVERVIEW Introduction 1. This Inquiry has been set up as a result of profound and wide-ranging concerns arising from the activities of two undercover police units. First, the Special Demonstration Squad (“the SDS”) which existed between 1968 and 2008. Second, the undercover element of the National Public Order Intelligence Unit (“the NPOIU”) which existed between 1999 and 2010. Our terms of reference are wide enough to encompass all undercover policing by English and Welsh police forces in England and Wales since 1968 but we shall be concentrating primarily upon the activities of these two units. 2. It has emerged that, for decades, undercover police officers infiltrated a significant number of political and other activist groups in deployments which typically lasted for years. The information reported by these undercover police officers was extensive. It covered the activities of the groups in question and their members. It also extended to the groups and individuals with whom they came into contact, including elected representatives. Reporting covered not only the political or campaigning activities of those concerned but other aspects of their personal lives. Groups mainly on the far left but also the far right of the political spectrum were infiltrated as well as groups campaigning for social, environmental or other change.
