## 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 proposed media releases, social posts, investor presentations and broker material, list every item, its channel and date, and mark items that refer to the offer, against the restrictions that apply before and after lodgment and the permitted statements.
- What the lawyer does: The lawyer decides whether each item is advertising or publicity, whether an exception applies, and what must be changed or withheld, and confirms the cleared material is what is published.
- 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 unannounced, price-sensitive deal information goes only into a tool approved for inside information and is handled under the deal’s information barrier.
2. Check each item’s timing against lodgment and the exposure period.
3. Confirm the exception relied on for each permitted item.
4. Confirm the published version matches the cleared version.

## 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.
