Why is the requirement to save documents for 99 years?

We did a health project where the (standard NHS contract) required us to save documents for 65 years, but no one in the NHS could explain to me why or what for. I guess for certain procedures or interventions there may be a later claim but having learned elsewhere that information governance was fragmented (the kindest term) and documents, material and digital, were dumped in repositories with no indexes, I wonder if anyone in the future would ever be able to find the relevant documents if needed.

I guess you have to respond to regulation as best you can 😎.

Yeah, governments just like to government. Who really knows why they mandate half the stuff that they do! I just need to make sure we are in compliance!
