<p>On January 1, 2021, the Federal Records Act was amended. It now requires the Archivist of the United States to promulgate regulations governing Federal agency preservation of electronic messages that are determined to be records. We are now proposing to amend our regulations by revising 1236.22 to expressly state records management requirements for electronic messages and systems.</p>
