In our RM Operating Principles I say:
"Where a duplicate file or information is kept for convenience this is to
be destroyed as soon as it is no longer in regular use."
I'm now trying to develop a definition for "regular use" and was thinking
along the lines of "A document would be considered in regular use if it is
referred to more than ? times per month."
Has anyone given any thought to this before and would share with me what
they decided regular use was.
I know as minor as it may seem I shall probably get endless questions on
the exact definition!
Thanks,
Susan
