| ODPM desc: | Adoption of ISO 15489 methodology for Electronic Document Records Management (ERDM) and identification of areas where current records management policies, procedures and systems need improvement to meet the requirements of Freedom of Information (FOI) and Data Protection legislation |
| |  |  |
| IDeA guidance: | The international standard ISO 15489 defines best practice for the management of documents and records management. The standard was devised to ensure that appropriate protection is given to all records, and that evidence and information they contain can be retrieved more efficiently and effectively, using standard procedures.
To fulfil this outcome councils will have to adopt the ISO 15489 methodology for Electronic Document Records Management (EDRM).
Councils will also have to undertake a Freedom of Information (FoI) and Data Protection (DP) audit of their current systems, arrive at a gap analysis of the actions needed to fulfil these requirements and implement a programme to bridge that gap and achieve compliance within the statutory timescales. |
