This advice describes the process of formulating Counter disaster plans. It supports a public office’s preparedness for, and recovery from natural and man-made disasters affecting records in physical format.
This advice refers to physical records. The storage of digital records on network servers, in data centres, or in the cloud is NOT covered by the scope of this guidance. The protection and recovery of digital records needs be addressed within your Public Office’s business continuity plan.
