-
(a) If the director and librarian or the designee of the director and librarian accepts the records control schedule, amended schedule, written certification of compliance described by Section 203.041(a)(2), or amended written certification of compliance described by Section 203.041(c) for filing, the acceptable records control schedule may be used as the basis for the destruction of records listed on it without additional notice to the director and librarian.
(b) If the director and librarian or the designee of the director and librarian rejects the records control schedule, amended schedule, written certification of compliance described by Section 203.041(a)(2), or amended written certification of compliance described by Section 203.041(c) for filing, the reasons for the rejection shall be stated in writing within a reasonable time to the records management officer and the schedule, amended schedule, written certification of compliance, or amended written certification of compliance shall be corrected and resubmitted.
(c) The director and librarian or the designee of the director and librarian may reject a records control schedule or amended schedule for filing only if a retention period listed on it is less than a retention period for the same record established on a records retention schedule issued by the commission or if the schedule is in violation of this subtitle or a rule adopted under it. The director and librarian or the designee of the director and librarian may reject a written certification of compliance described by Section 203.041(a)(2) or an amended written certification of compliance described by Section 203.041(c) for filing only if the records management officer files a written certification of compliance in a form and manner that has not been approved by the director and librarian.
(d) The director and librarian or the designee of the director and librarian may make it a condition of acceptance of a records control schedule or amended schedule for filing that a record listed on the schedule be transferred to the custody of the commission on the expiration of its retention period rather than being destroyed.
