Laws and Rules

State Records Management Laws (State Agency Bulletin 4) require state agencies to develop records retention schedules. Texas state agencies are required to submit their retention schedules to TSLAC on a timetable established by administrative rule. The rules governing retention scheduling are published as State Agency Bulletin 3. If a record series does not appear on a certified records retention schedule, it may not be destroyed without obtaining special permission of TSLAC's executive director.
