4.1. This policy applies to all employees and appointees of the Gambling Commission, including temporary or fixed-term staff and contractors.

4.2. The policy applies to all records held by the Commission at every stage of the information lifecycle: creation, use, storage, and disposal. It applies to both paper and electronic records, and includes written, audio and video format.

4.3. A record is defined by its content and its context, not by its format. Emails, and any other form of electronic correspondence used by the Commission, which are produced or received in the conduct of business will be considered to be part of the corporate record.
