| How AI is used | From the guarantee, the loan as offered and as signed, and the bank's correspondence, build a table comparing the proposed and signed loan terms to identify any material difference, calculate the lower of the borrower's outstanding liability and the guarantee limit, and draft the guarantor's letter to the bank. |
| What the lawyer must review | Decide whether the guarantor can withdraw (before credit is provided or because the signed loan differs materially from the one proposed) or must negotiate a release by payment or other arrangement, settle the letter, and advise on the effect of any release on mortgages the guarantor gave. |

## Checking plan

**Source-by-source verification**

Trace relied-on content to independent sources and check for relevant material the output has missed.

- What the AI does: From the guarantee, the loan as offered and as signed, and the bank's correspondence, build a table comparing the proposed and signed loan terms to identify any material difference, calculate the lower of the borrower's outstanding liability and the guarantee limit, and draft the guarantor's letter to the bank.
- What the lawyer does: Decide whether the guarantor can withdraw (before credit is provided or because the signed loan differs materially from the one proposed) or must negotiate a release by payment or other arrangement, settle the letter, and advise on the effect of any release on mortgages the guarantor gave.
- Who reviews: Responsible lawyer with competence in the matter
- Basis: Practical workflow informed by the linked primary sources; the traffic light and working checks are editorial guidance, not a court classification.
- Why: The level reflects what the work is, the consequence of an error, and how much of the output the lawyer must independently re-derive.

## Checks the lawyer makes

1. Confirm the instructions, the jurisdiction and the complete relevant material before starting.
2. Confirm the lender subscribes to the Banking Code and the guarantor's category before relying on its withdrawal and release terms.
3. Check each loan term in the comparison against the proposed and signed loan documents.
4. Recalculate the outstanding liability and the guarantee limit from the bank's statement and the guarantee.
5. Check the output against the source documents named in it before it is relied on.

## Notes

- These are suggested working checks. Confirm the required checking with the responsible lawyer before work starts; the checking approach does not establish permission to use AI.
