A user interpretation of the Code of Practice for legal admissibility of information stored on electronic document management systems (PD 0008)

Abstract

The author examines the recently issued Code of Practice for Legal Admissibility of Information Stored on Electronic Document Management Systems — PD 0008 — from the perspective of an end user organisation with an electronic document management (EDM) system already installed. The author was in no way involved in the preparation of this code and gives a frank and honest discussion from the viewpoint of a manager responsible for the management and operation of the EDM system.
