Student enrolment - data retention
Dear Solicitors Regulation Authority,
I have looked on your website about data retention but need some clarification.
- How long do you keep records of applications for student enrolment prior to commencing the LPC?
- Will you still retain records from 2010?
- If yes, do the records contain information relating to character and suitability issues?
- please can you tell me in which year the assessment offences under the character and suitability was introduced?
John
