	uin	204142
	answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 22/07/2014 answer text <p /> <p>The Department’s policy on whether to retain or destroy a file is to follow the cross-governmental guidance provided by The National Archives (TNA) where the length of retention is allocated based on legal or business requirements and historical importance. The result is that files are kept for different lengths of time depending on their content. <br><br>Those files where another government department is the policy lead or which contain minimal or duplicated content are kept for the shortest period before destruction. This period could be up to 10 years. Those which contain papers relating to issues such as legislation, major policies or notable events may be kept for up to 25 years with some files being transferred to TNA following a review of their importance in line with policy and their value for future historical research. These arrangements have been in place since 1982, with the most recent review of procedures having taken place in 2010.</p><p /> answering member constituency Staffordshire Moorlands answering member printed Karen Bradley question first answered 22/07/2014 17:02:33 answering member 4110 label Biography information for Dame Karen Bradley
