We recognise the importance of effective file keeping records and data management to enable us to carry out our functions. This requires, amongst other things, a data and record retention policy.
To support these principles we have developed the following policies:
-
ICT Systems Security Policy – this ensures the continuity of the Information and Communications Technology Department and minimises the risk of damage by preventing security incidents and reducing their potential impact.
-
Data and Record Retention Policy – this describes how data is to be stored, retained and disposed of.
-
Data Protection Policy – this describes the actions we will take to ensure we comply with the principles ofthe Data Protection Act 1998.
