Public Documents Committee (PDC)
 The Public Documents Committee (PDC), established under the Document Disposal Act (RSBC 1996, c. 99), is responsible for reviewing and recommending approval for the disposition of government records (disposition consists of either: destruction, transfer to the government archives, or alienation).
The Document Disposal Act states that “a document must not be destroyed except on the written recommendation of the Public Documents Committee, which consists of the chief executive officer of the museum or a person designated by the chief executive officer, a person designated by the minister responsible for the administration of this Act, the Comptroller General, and 3 other persons to be named by the Lieutenant Governor in Council.”
The PDC meets regularly to review records retention and disposition schedules submitted by ministries and other government bodies for the Committee's approval. Representatives from ministries and government bodies, as well as the Corporate Information Management Branch, attend each meeting in order to answer questions from the members of the PDC. If the PDC approves, it submits the records schedule to the Select Standing Committee on Public Accounts (PAC), which is a Committee of the Legislative Assembly.
The PAC in turn recommends approval of the records schedules to the Legislative Assembly.
