Questions and answers

Questions about Connected Records

Practical answers to common questions about managing this responsibility well.

Why does connected records matter?

Give teams a shared source of context across every area of governance, risk and compliance.

What should connected records include?

It should cover cross-register links, reusable records, relationship context, linked tasks and linked evidence, with enough context to support action and explain decisions.

Who should be responsible for connected records?

Ownership should sit with the person who can make decisions and keep the information current. A specialist or governance team may provide the method, but accountability should not be left with an unnamed group.

How do you keep connected records current?

Set review dates according to risk and reassess after relevant incidents, material change, new evidence or overdue follow-up work. Preserve the history so changes remain explainable.

What evidence should be retained for connected records?

Keep the source information, owner, review and approval history, supporting documents and resulting actions needed to show what was considered and what happened next.
