The following lists functional retention and disposal authorities that have been approved for use by State Records. The table indicates who the disposal authority was issued to, the date range of the records covered by the authority, whether the authority applies to whole or part of the organisation and the authority number.

It is arranged alphabetically by department/organisation.

Notes:

Functional retention and disposal authorities have been approved and issued by State Records since 1999. Prior to this date the Archives Authority of NSW approved disposal recommendations. Disposal recommendations can be obtained by contacting State Records on telephone: (02) 8247 8625 or by emailing: disposal@records.nsw.gov.au.

Contact State Records to obtain a copy of a functional retention and disposal authority on this list where no PDF copy has been provided (e.g. superseded authorities).

Some of the authorities listed were issued to organisations that are no longer current administrative units of Government in NSW. Agencies wishing to use these authorities as legal instruments should contact State Records.

The electronic versions of functional retention and disposal authorities are provided for information purposes only. While State Records' staff have endeavoured to ensure the electronic versions are as accurate as possible, they are not the authorised versions and cannot be guaranteed to be error free. Authorised paper versions of functional retention and disposal authorities can be requested by contacting State Records.
