Consultation launched on Scottish public records management

The Keeper of the Records of Scotland has launched a consultation on proposed changes to his Model Records Management Plan, to assist authorities in meeting their record keeping obligations.

Since 2011 the Keeper has been required to assess and agree records management plans submitted by public authorities, with the current system in place now subject to review.
