I believe it should be kept for one year from the completion of the
request. However, I can't currently find the guidance note on the ICO
website.
I know I've seen such a guidance note, as my predecessor kept everything
and my first act was to make sure my own DP files were DP compliant!

Apologies for cross posting
Hi all,
A quick question this afternoon. How long do organisations hold Subject
Access Requests, supporting information and responses to requests under
the Data Protection Act?
Any assistance will be very much appreciated.
Regards,
Alex
