RDA 11188 is a request for a new RDA. The retention period is permanent and the format is paper. Company Charters must be kept permanently until a company no longer maintains a license, at which time the file is reviewed and may be transferred to RDA 2944, Closed Company Charters. The separate RDAs are to prevent any accidental destruction of active company charters. Recommend approval of request to create RDA 11188.
