Nottingham City Council gets lessons in record management from the ICO

Nottingham City Council has received a records management Practice Recommendation (PR)} from the Information Commissioner's Office. The PR follows a review of the Council's record management practices by National Archives, which found that the Council did not comply with any of the key provisions of the Code of Practice on the Management of Records. The Code is one of two codes issued by the ICO under powers given to it by sections 45 and 46 of the Freedom of Information Act.

Of the three PRs issued by the ICO so far, Nottingham City Council is the target of two. The other City Council to receive a PR is Liverpool.
