The Commonwealth Security Service (CSS) was a precursor to the Commonwealth Police of Australia.
Operational in the 1930s and 1940s, it merged with the Commonwealth Investigation Branch in 1946 to form the Commonwealth Investigation Service (CIS).[1][2] The CSS monitored events and organizations deemed problematic by the government,[3][4] including the 1948 Queensland railway strike[5]
