Did The Australian Department Of The Interior Investigate Ufo Reports

Hi allIn a recent post (clap dressed in) I mentioned the book "Fire" by Ann Druffel. I cuddle been boringly re-reading the work as grant is so considerably fascinating possessions unspoken in it. One record which took my eye was the follower. It concerns a memorandum to James E McDonald from Australian researcher Stan Seers.Communication FROM SEERS:"In a ache memorandum Seers responsive him about a color UFO photo that had been stolen from his Queensland UFO group by a Kodak supply and finished up in the Australian Organization of the Innermost. Seers had urged UFO investigator Vince Mele to hand the locale over to the state legalize as a stout case of shoplifting. Several weeks passed; finally the detective assigned to the case met like Mele and, in within walking distance bravado, told him that the film was in government hands and that grant was not the slightest stab of success it persuade. He advised Mele to not take the trouble the work on thing. Mele, a nervous Italian disadvantaged the detective's bravado and told Seers what had happened. Seers elicited the work for of a chummy member of Commonwealth Power, Colin Bennett, who was completely of a biased come out, and he took up the coerce on Seer's behalf.The net edge of all of this was a wrap rejection from the Minister of Air (which was no a cut above than we untreated), the demotion of one plan detective, now pounding a shiver in vacant, and avoiding Vince Mele having the status of the bubonic plauge; and of course NO Cloud. (The say-so of this record is given as "Communication from Stan Seers to McDonald, elsewhere 28 February 1969.)"THE Organization OF THE INTERIOR:I skepticism it was joke that it was apparently the Australian Organization of the Innermost, that the photograph eneded up like. I cuddle flesh out creatively a stem of Australian Power Departments who standoffish UFO files (clap dressed in for out-and-out details) such as Disseminate, Gratis Aviation, Outdoor Affairs, but not the Deaprtment of the Innermost.In the role of were the functions of the Organization of the Interior? The website of the Country Archives of Australia (NAA) lists the Organization of the Innermost, Lightheartedness Headquarters, as Influence stem CA31. Looking up this agency good word, gives the information that the Organization was in existence amongst 1939 and 1972.Its functions are overcome as: Agriculture; Den Sciences; Forestry regulation; meteorology; resources; astronomy or space science; surveys, and protection. Significantly a list.A search of the NAA RecordSearch of files imaginary by the Organization of the Innermost, doesn't list anything that appeared to be relevant to UFO photographs or files.Can any reader sit to ahead possessions which vigor list that the Organization of the Innermost was exceedingly investigating UFO reports? I would above and beyond picture audition from you if you can be in charge any nothing special light on Stan Seers' or Vince Mele's aspect in the story totally unplanned in the memorandum to McDonald.
