- Archival history:
- After the abolition of Pacov district, the documents of the District National Committee were taken over into the registry of the District National Committee in Pelhřimov. As late as 1997, parts of the agenda were found in the building of the Municipal Office in Pacov. In 1966, the files went through an appraisal proceeding. They were then handed over to the Pelhřimov District Archives, where the fonds was organised and inventoried in 1967–1968. The fonds was re-inventoried in 2004.
- Administrative/biographical history:
- The District National Committee in Pacov was established on 1 February 1949 by a government resolution without any connection to the previous administrative institutions. The newly established Regional National Committee in Jihlava was its direct superior body. The executive body was the board, which managed all the activities of the DNC not reserved to the plenary or the chairman. The professional agenda was performed by individual departments. Commissions functioned as executive components of the board. It ceased to exist after the establishment of the Pelhřimov District National Committee for the territory of a large district on 1 July 1960.
