> Hello All,
> Last year the Canadian General Standards Board (CGSB) published
> Electronic Records as Documentary Evidence (CAN 72.34-2005). This
> document supports Canada's Evidence Act by providing guidance for
> managing electronic records so that they may meet authenticity and
> evidentiary requirements (for admissibility in court).  I was
> wondering if Australia, UK and the US have comparable standards issued
> by national standards boards or other governing bodies?
> 
> For the US I was able to locate, Legal Acceptance of Records Produced
> by Information Technology Systems (ANSI/AIIM TR31-2004).
>  
> For Australia I was able to locate, Electronic Imaging -
> Recommendations for the Management of Electronic Recording Systems for
> the Recording of Documents that may be Required as Evidence, on WORM
> Optical Disk (HB 178-2003 : ISO/TR 12654). 
> 
> For the UK I was able to locate Code of Practice for the Legal
> Admissibility of Information Stored Electronically (BIP 0008:2004).
> 
> Am I missing anything?  Thanks in advance for your help, Lisa
