Ministry of Territorial Policy: authorisation to destroy documentary series and update retention schedules

The Undersecretariat of the Ministry of Territorial Policy and Democratic Memory has authorised the destruction of various documentary series within the General State Administration, following the rulings of the Superior Commission for the Classification of Administrative Documents (CSCDA) of June 2026. The resolution covers files regarding private security, relations with the Administration of Justice, collective agreements, trade union elections, and employment regulation procedures. Additionally, documentary series retention schedules are being updated to facilitate their application (Art. 6 RD 1164/2002).

In 2 key points

  1. Authorisation to destroy files concerning private security, relations with the Justice system, and collective agreements (CSCDA rulings 08/2026 to 13/2026). (Dictámenes CSCDA 08/2026, 10/2026, 11/2026, 12/2026 y 13/2026)
  2. Update of the retention schedules for the aforementioned documentary series to facilitate their application. (Anexo de la resolución)

How it affects those involved

The resolution does not create direct obligations for the private sector, as it regulates the internal management of the Ministry's documentary heritage. For the Administration, it establishes the retention and destruction periods for specific files (private security, justice, collective agreements, and trade union elections) in accordance with CSCDA rulings 08/2026 to 13/2026. The primary effect is the update of documentary retention schedules to ensure the efficient management of the Department's archives.
