The Powers and duties section of the LG Inform Plus website is designed to provide English and Welsh councils with guidance and information on what they have the power to do, and what is required of them by law.

Councils are required by law to keep records for a certain period of time, depending on the category of the record. LG Inform Plus provides retention guidance for subscribers to ensure help authorities meet business needs. It is maintained against a changing legislative framework and has the potentional to save Local Government substantial costs, time and expertise.

RECORDS RETENTION

By law, councils are required to keep records for a certain period of time, depending on the category of the record. As the costs of storage, monitoring digital security and version controls, compliance with Freedom of Information (FoI) requests and the possibility of hefty fines can be considerably high, this section of the web site is designed to provide guidance to those dealing with records retention.
