"The Public Records (Scotland) Bill is a technical Bill introduced by the Scottish Government on 7 October 2010. The Bill seeks to introduce an obligation, on named Scottish public authorities, to produce and implement a Records Management Plan. It also seeks to amend the provisions of the Public Records (Scotland) Act 1937 in relation to Scottish Court records.The Bill is seen as a means of improving record keeping in Scotland by named public authorities and private and voluntary bodies which provide functions on their behalf. Good record keeping underpins lawful access to public records of organisations which provide public services. The Bill is also seen as a means of improving public services through better management of public records and the information those records contain.This briefing gives an overview of the various reviews which led to the Bill and to the responses to the consultation on proposed legislation, and how the Bill has addressed those responses."
