Dear All
Hello, having followed the topics of discussion with much interest for the
last week, I thought I ought to introduce myself as so many others have
done...
My name is Steve Davies and I'm Records Manager at Chester City Council.
We've just had our Publication Scheme approved today which is a
relief...now the hard part begins, getting new FOI/RM procedures and
standards in place! The biggest challenge here seems to be getting all the
various people who have an interest in this to work together...we
unfortunately have an organisation that doesn't seem to see the connections
between RM, FOI, DP, E-GOV, ERM/Digitisation and Communications, so all
these issues are dealt with by different departments(!) I'm trying to get
everyone to talk...
We used to have a Management Level "Information Group" but this was
disbanded!
Any other "lone ranger" records managers out there had this situation? How
did you overcome it?
As others have said, thanks to Tony and Stephen for setting up the
listserv. I think it's exactly what we need!
