If you were audited, you merely need to ensure that your practices are
consistent. Check with internal audit re the national fraud initiative,
they may have a view on this which may require that such "evidence" is
retained for a longer period.

Subject: New Concessionary Travel retention of evidence of identity
Dear all
Under the new Concessionary Travel scheme that is about to be
implemented
bus passes will be issued. Supporting documentation is required for
proof
of identity and eligibility. My question is - after the evidence has
been
reviewed and the pass issued - what should happen to the evidence, how
long should it be kept for?
