Where do I find treaties/acts granting French colonies independence?

A large number of colonies simply voted to be independent:

Generally, an independence document is only needed if independence comes as part of a peace treaty at a conclusion of a war, when there are two parties to negotiate the terms. There is probably too much involved in setting up an independent government from scratch for a single document to be useful. And if the government has already reported the results of a referendum, anything further is unnecessary.
