The Corporate Information Management Unit
The Corporate Information Management Unit (CIMU) operates a
records management service for the County Council. This involves
the storage, management and retrieval of files on behalf of all
Council employees, and guidance on how to look after electronic
records.
As well as three secure storage rooms, the unit has links with
an offsite storage company, where boxes are stored which need to be
kept for a longer period of time. The unit is responsible for the
Council's Disposal Schedule, ensuring that the right information is
kept in the right place for the right length of time. CIMU is also
the coordinator for Information Legislation requests, including
Freedom of
Information and Data Protection.
While we are happy to answer any general enquiries on
any of these areas, CIMU is primarily a service for internal County
Council staff so we are unable to receive any outside
visitors.
