Lambeth's Document Retention and Disposal Standard
The aims of the Guidelines are to:
- Assist in identifying records that may be worth preserving permanently as part of a local authority’s archives.
- Prevent the premature destruction of records that need to be retained for a specified period to satisfy legal, financial and other requirements of public administration.
- Provide consistency for the destruction of those records not required permanently after specified periods.
- Promote improved Records Management practices within local government.
