A number of your documents have a section called 'MANAGING RECORDS KEPT ON THE BASIS OF THIS DOCUMENT'. Is this absolutely necessary or can we delete this section?
Assign topic to the user
Please note that this section consolidates information about how to handle records mentioned in the content of the document (e.g., who is responsible for them, where they are stored, for how long they need to be kept, etc.). This information is needed to help fulfill requirements from section 7.5 of the standard (Documented Information).
So our recommendation is for you to keep this section (the alternative would be to include the above-mentioned information in the place where the record is mentioned, what would turn the document more complex to read).
