## 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: Assemble the register from questionnaires, audit reports and contract records, and work with the lawyer on the risk rating and the description of each action taken, keeping every entry sourced to the document it came from.
- What the lawyer does: Set the risk criteria, decide each rating, and confirm that what the register says about remediation and effectiveness is supported by what the entity actually did, before any of it is used in a published statement.
- 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. Set the risk criteria, decide each rating, and confirm that what the register says about remediation and effectiveness is supported by what the entity actually did, before any of it is used in a published statement.
3. 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.
