Chris -
I did some RM work in the Republic of Ireland a year or so ago, and the applicable legislation I identified was:
- Data Protection Acts, 1988 and 2003
- National Archives Act 1986
- Freedom of Information Acts, 1997 and 2003
- Electronic Commerce Act 2000

Subject: RM in the Republic of Ireland
Dear All (with apologies for cross posting)
I'm currently trying to increase my knowledge and understanding of information and records management regulatory requirements specific to the Republic of Ireland, particularly regarding the retention and disposal of records.
What I'm trying to obtain is a list of the legislative / regulatory retention requirements that are specific to the Republic of Ireland. For example, I always presumed that the UK Data Protection Act 1998 was exactly the same piece of legislation applicable in the Republic of Ireland, but have recently discovered (if my understanding is correct) that the ROI have a separate Data Protection Act?
That got me thinking, and am now very curious and interested in finding out i) what other pieces of legislation are specific to the ROI, and ii) of the many other UK legislative/regulatory requirements, which of them are not applicable in the ROI?
So I was wondering, and apologies for the rather random nature of this email, but is this something anyone would have knowledge on?
Many Thanks,
Chris
