The section "Federal Council and Federal Assembly Secretariat Management" contains a file on a petition submitted to the Federal Council by the Action Committee for Jews in the Soviet Union in 1980 concerning human rights violations by the Soviet Union. In the files of the Swiss politician Achille Casanova (1941-2016) there is a file on a survey by the Swiss Radio and Television Company (SRG) on "Switzerland and the Jews in the Second World War" from 1997.

- Archival history:
- The documents of the Chancellery were probably gradually transferred to the Federal Archive.
- Administrative/biographical history:
- The Swiss Federal Archive in Bern has the statutory task of safeguarding, indexing, making available and evaluating archival documents of the Swiss Federal Assembly, the Federal Council, the Federal Administration and Swiss representations abroad. In accordance with the Federal Law on Archiving, it thus contributes to legal certainty, continuous and rational administrative management and makes government action comprehensible. The oldest holdings of the archive go back to the Central Archive of the Helvetic Republic, which was founded on 18 December 1798.
