RETENTION PERIODS OF DOCUMENTARY MATERIAL

Summary/Abstract: Author draws attention to the fact, that there exists no umrella act, which would regulate retention periods and exactly define who keeps the materials permanently and who keeps thme for a certain period of time. He also pointed out the need for a larger number of competent staff for working with disposal of records. Author emphasises that too many laws and regulation acts (regu­ lations, instrucitons, ets) regulate retention periods of records. He suggests that an umbrella law regulating retention periods should be passed. The mentioned law would also determine who is obli­ ged to keep certain records for a defined period of time and who permanently. It would also have to define the meaning of PERMA­ NENTLY. Furthermore the author initiates the idea of using RECORD CENTRES in the state administration, which would employ competent staff to work with records before they are transferred to the Archi­ ves of the Republic of Slovenia. This would be similar to the order in the European Union and would stop the state authorities' reliance on the help of unprofessional staff, e. g. students, to arrange their records before their transfer to the Arhices of Republic of Slovenia.
