Services to Government


The Information, Privacy and Archives division of the Ministry of Public and Business Service Delivery, provides leadership in recordkeeping, access, and privacy to the Ontario Public Service, provincial agencies, and the broader public sector.

To foster transparency and excellence in recordkeeping, we provide advisory services, tools, and guidance to public bodies to assist them in meeting their responsibilities under the Archives and Recordkeeping Act, 2006 . Agencies that are designated as public bodies under the Act are listed in Regulation 336/07.

We also support public bodies in their records scheduling activities and manage the tracking of over 14,000 Archivist-approved record retention schedules. These schedules are available online to all Ontario government staff and can be made available to designated agencies.
