2 TRANSLINK RECORDS MANAGEMENT POLICY 1. Translink is dependent on its records in order to operate efficiently and account for its actions. This policy defines a structure for Translink to ensure adequate records are maintained, managed and controlled effectively and at best value, commensurate with legal, operational and information needs. Background 2. Our organisation's records are our corporate memory, providing evidence of actions and decisions and representing a vital asset to support our daily functions and operations. They support policy formation and managerial decision-making, protect the interests of Translink and the rights of staff and members of the public who have dealings with Translink. They support consistency, continuity and efficiency and productivity and help us deliver our services in consistent and equitable ways. 3. Records management, through the proper control of the content, storage and volume of records, reduces vulnerability to legal challenge or financial loss and promotes best value in terms of human and space resources through greater coordination of information and storage systems. 4. All Translink records are Public Records under the Public Records Acts and must be kept in accordance with following statutory and Translink guidelines ( also see appendix A) And by NITHCO Board on 9 th May 2007 Page 2 of 12

9 Appendix A Legislation and National Guidelines Controls Assurance Records Management is one of the Controls Assurance Standards developed by the DHSS. The standard requires a systematic and planned approach to the management of records to be in place so that Translink can ensure, from the moment a record is created until its ultimate disposal, it can control both the quality and quantity of information it generates; maintain that information in a manner that effectively services its needs and those of its stakeholders; dispose of the information appropriately when it is no longer required. (A list of the criteria set up to endorse that the standard is in place is attached in Appendix B and is based upon control assurance standards developed by DHSS ref. The Data Protection Act 1998 The 1998 Data Protection Act places a statutory responsibility on all organisations to protect the personal data, which they hold. In relation to records management this means that organisations must implement measures to: - Maintain the accuracy of data held Protect the security of personal data Control access to personal data Make arrangements for secure disposal once the record is no longer required The Freedom of Information Act 2000 gives the public the right to access to information held by public bodies. The Act recognises that members of the public have the right to know how public services such as Translink are organised and run, i.e. How much they cost? And by NITHCO Board on 9 th May 2007 Page 9 of 12
10 What services are being provided? How to make a complaint? The targets that are being set. The standards that are expected and the results achieved. Section 19 of the Freedom of Information Act 2000 requires that some documents be released for public scrutiny pro-actively. This has been implemented by Translink by the posting of a Publication Scheme, which has been approved by the Information Commissioner, on the Internet. Members of the public can access this information on Translink s website (paper copies will also be available if required). Any person who makes a request to Translink for information, must be informed within 20 days whether Translink holds that information and if so, it must be supplied. A public interest test may be carried out to determine if the benefit in disclosure outweighs the public interest in non-disclosure. Freedom of Information relies on good record keeping including the creation of reliable records, which can be located when requested, and which are correctly disposed of, or selected for permanent preservation, at the appropriate time. Freedom of Information requires that there should be an audit trail to track the legal disposal of documents that are no longer required. Human Rights Act 1998 Translink must observe the right of individuals to respect for their private lives. Information should only be disclosed when the disclosure is authorised by law. In selecting information for disclosure Translink should make the least intrusion possible into an individual s private life.

12 Appendix B Controls Assurance Standard RECORDS MANAGEMENT CRITERION 1 Executive responsibility for records management is clearly defined and there are clear lines of accountability for records management throughout the organisation, leading to the Board. CRITERION 2 There is an organisation-wide records management strategy, which is endorsed by the Board. CRITERION 3 A senior Executive is responsible for co-ordinating, publicising, implementing and monitoring the records management strategy and reporting on a regular basis to the Board. CRITERION 4 The organisation has a comprehensive records management programme which includes the cost-effective management of non-current as well as active records, the storage, tracking, retrieval, environmental control and destruction of records when no longer required, and which also takes account of the organisation s risk management policy and strategy. CRITERION 5 All managers ensure that staff are aware of their personal responsibilities for record keeping. This includes the creation, use, storage, security and confidentiality of records. CRITERION 6 Records management services and controls are included in the organisation s plans and strategies. CRITERION 7 Employees, including managers are provided with appropriate information, instruction and training on records management matters. CRITERION 8 Key indicators capable of showing improvements in records management and/or providing early warning of risk are used at all levels of the organisation, including the Board, and the efficacy and usefulness of the indicators is reviewed regularly. CRITERION 9 The systems in place for records management are monitored, audited and reviewed by management and the Board at least annually in order to make improvements to the systems. CRITERION 10 The Board seeks independent assurances that an appropriate and effective system of managing records is in place and that the necessary level of controls and monitoring are being implemented.
