The Board recognises that the PR(S)A encompasses all records within the organisation and is therefore far wider a remit than just health records management. As such the Board will explore the option of creating a Corporate Records Manager post to assume day to day operational responsibility for all organisation records. This Records Management Plan will be modified and updated appropriately and the Keeper of Records notified accordingly.
