The Information Governance Alliance have commissioned a revision of the Records Management Code of Practice. A working group from the IG Alliance, Department of Health, NHS England and the Health and Social Care Information Centre will work together to redraft the Code of Practice. Comments and suggestions for change are invited. Further more specific consultation will take place with professional groups and other organisations directly impacted by any changes to the Code. At the moment the consultation is open to anyone interested in records management in health and social care.

If you wish to make any comments and suggestions for change about the current Code please can you send them to the mailbox listed below:
