Votes and Indexes from the 1st to the 49th Parliament is an Index of Parliamentary Papers - New South Wales

New South Wales Parliamentary Papers began in 1824.

From 1824-1855 papers were bound with the Votes and Proceedings of the Legislative Council. From 1856-1903 papers were bound with the Votes and Proceedings of the Legislative Assembly. For holdings 1824-1903, see New South Wales—Votes and Proceedings/Journals.

Since 1904 there has been a separate Parliamentary Papers series; the bound volumes include the papers from both Houses, and were entitled Joint volumes of papers presented to the Legislative Council and Legislative Assembly. Some libraries now receive these in microform.

Note that on the NSW Parliament website, the term “house papers” is used to denote documents containing procedural information concerning the issues before Parliament. This includes agendas, minutes, lists of Motions and Bills being considered, and the like. These are different from the “parliamentary papers” presented to either house of the Parliament.
