Is there a “blanket” records retention procedure that covers all ideation tools that government agencies might use?
Not currently, however, GSA plans to submit a request for a “Citizens” Category in the Public Input section of the General Records Schedule that could provide a blanket schedule for similar ideation tools used to solicit citizen engagement in the future. The benefit of this is that agencies would then not have to file a separate records schedule each time they conduct an online engagement and could cite this “Citizens/Public Input” section in the General Records Schedule.
