In accordance with Department of Health guidelines we are retaining
records of "Equipment - records of non fixed equipment, including
specification, test records, maintenance records and logs" for 11 years
(Consumer Protection Act 1987).
Can anyone clarify if this is 11 years from the date of the record or 11
years after the end of the life of the equipment?
I seem to have researched this a few months ago and apparently found the
latter, but I can't remember or discover where I got that from and was
wondering if anyone else could shed some light.
Thanks as always for your help!
Catherine
