Electronic records as documentary evidence

Canada is working towards the development of a national guidance and standard for managing electronic records to meet evidentiary requirements in courts of law. Known as the Electronic Records as Document Evidence Standard it is slated for final and formal release in the coming weeks. The underlying philosophy of the new standard is to provide a framework for organizations to manage electronic records in a manner that will �maximize the probability of their admissibility as evidence in court.� What impact does the standard have on records and document management practices and corporate governance and risk mitigation? What is its relationship to PIPEDA and other privacy and evidential statutes? What does your enterprise need to know? Join our panel of experts as they share their perspectives on the standard and its practical implementation.
