Retention and disposal schedules

Retention and disposal schedules define how we manage our physical and digital records and information. They provide guidance on how long we should keep information and when we should delete or dispose of it. They are updated to reflect changes in legislation and business requirements.

Current schedules

The documents below contain our schedules. For each type of data, they shows information on:

• the disposal time frame for paper and digital copies
• whether it contains personal or special category data
• any example records
• the statutory provision or authority for holding the data

The schedules are listed below by department.
