239-A - Preservation of books and records.

§  239-a.  Preservation of books and records. Every savings bank shall  preserve all its records of final entry, including cards used under  the  card system and deposit tickets, for a period of at least six years from  the  date of making the same or from the date of the last entry thereon;  provided,  however,  that  preservation  of  photographic  reproductions  thereof or records in photographic form shall constitute compliance with  the  requirements  of  this  section. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the  banking board may prescribe by regulation such period of time longer  or  shorter  than six years during which all records kept by saving banks as  fiduciary shall be preserved in original form.
