Ient Text

California SB1236 amends the State Records Management Act to enhance record-keeping practices across state agencies.

California SB1236 revises the State Records Management Act by requiring state agencies to establish and maintain a program for managing records and information. This includes ensuring efficient information collection, minimizing burden on individuals and businesses, and avoiding unnecessary duplication. Agencies must comply with rules set by the Secretary of State, appoint a Records Management Coordinator, and notify the Secretary when records are stored with third parties or digitized.
