Explanatory Memoranda is a Current Series of Explanatory Memoranda - Victoria

Documents entitled Notes on Clauses, Explanatory Memoranda, or Explanatory Notes have been issued for some Victorian Legislative Council bills since about 1983, and for Legislative Assembly bills since about 1971. In the early years these titles were used almost interchangeably. For all hardcopy holdings of the loose issues, see Bills—Victoria.

Since 2000, Explanatory Memoranda for bills that have been passed have been included in the annual volumes of acts, before the text of the act itself. They are available online from 2001.
