Text

This part does not prevent educational institutions from destroying any records, if not otherwise prevented by law. However, access shall be granted under § 43.5 before destroying student records where the parent or eligible student has requested access. Only records which are no longer relevant or necessary may be destroyed, subject to § 43.23(c).
