To ask the Secretary of State for Transport if he will place in the Library a copy of his Department's policy on the management of electronic records.
Geoff Hoon (Secretary of State, Department for Transport; Ashfield, Labour)
A copy of the central Department's policy on the management of electronic and paper records has been placed in the Library along with records policies for the Highways Agency and the Vehicle Operator Services Agency. The Driving Standards Agency has also placed the following documents in the Library:
DSA Records Management Policy
HR Data Retention Policy
Appropriate use of IT and Communications Equipment Policy
Retention Schedule for the Integrated Register of Driver Trainers
Fraud and Integrity Retention and Disposal Schedule
Annex M of Pearson Data Processor Agreement.
The Driving and Vehicle Licensing Agency has policies on the storage, transmission and destruction of electronic protectively marked material but they are themselves protectively marked and it would not be appropriate to make them publicly available.
