##### [The Learning Tree Early Education Limited](/creche/the-learning-tree-early-education-limited-clane.md), Clane · Regulation 10 — Policies, procedures etc. of pre-school service

- The following policy was found not to be in keeping with the requirements of Regulation 10. 1. The Risk Management policy did not state how long the risk management records will be kept

- 1. The service has updated the Risk Management Policy by adding a table specifying the relevant retention periods for risk management records. This update provides clear guidance to Management and staff on how long these records must be retained and ensures consistency in record -keeping practices. The service has also reviewed the retention requirements set out in other relevant policies to ensure that they are aligned with applicable legal and regulatory requirements
