Notice that the article doesn’t say WHEN this all happened. I wonder why?
When what happened?
If they destroyed the records they did it sometime after the beginning of the year, which was when I received the copy of the DOH retention schedule. If they requested the disposition of those records to be changed that request would have to be included in the DOH retention schedule. As of the beginning of the year there was no such request.
That’s why I asked them to show the documentation for the destruction of those records. The only way they could legally be destroyed is if they were submitted sometime in 2010 and the comptroller changed their permanent retention requirement.
We must have a Freeper working at HDoH!!
It had to have been recent because just last year (has changed since then) the Hawaii Homeland Dept REQUIRED the original certified long form birth certificate.
