Concerned about this 'keep them' discussion. My accountant says its good to go - This (https://www.gov.uk/running-a-limited...unting-records) says....
How long to keep records
You must normally keep records for at least 6 years from the end of the last company financial year they relate to.
You may need to keep records longer if:
they show a transaction that covers more than one of the company’s accounting periods
the company has bought something that it expects to last more than 6 years, like equipment or machinery
you sent your Company Tax Return late
HMRC has started a compliance check into your Company Tax ReturnComment

3. You won't have to tell auditors/HMRC that you shredded original documents.
Any other reason ?Comment
