    Kia Ora Cody,
 
On 27 March 2024, you requested the following information, under the Local
 Government Official Information and Meetings Act 1987 (LGOIMA):
 
Please supply a copy of the email retention policy used by the
 organisation.
 
Staff have confirmed that we have technical controls in place for the
 retention of emails in Microsoft 365. This is set up to retain all emails
 within outlook for 30 years. Teams Documents and Chat records are kept for
 3 years.
 
The policy pertaining to retention of records (including email) is
 attached but please note that this is currently in the process of being
 reviewed.
 
Our Information and Records Management Team Leader is almost done with the
 first draft of a revised Record Management policy and that will then
 circulate to Information Management, Cybersecurity, & our Legal teams
 before putting it out for feedback to the wider business. Until that
 process is completed, the attached document remains the current policy in
 practice.
 
You have the right to ask the Ombudsman to investigate and review our
 decision. Complaints can be sent by email to
 [1][email address].
 
Publication of responses to LGOIMA requests
Please note: our LGOIMA responses may be published on the Christchurch
 City Council website a month after they have been responded to, with
 requesters’ personal details withheld. If you have any concerns about
 this, please contact the Official Information team on
 [2][Christchurch City Council request email].
 
Yours sincerely,
 
Sean Rainey
 Manager Official Information and Privacy Officer
 Official Information Team
Office of the Mayor and Chief Executive
