## Checking plan

**Line-by-line review**

The letter reports a decision that has been made. It does not make a new one.

- What the AI does: Draft an outcome letter that follows the investigator’s signed findings and the outcome the decision-maker has chosen.
- What the lawyer does: Check the letter against the findings, the instrument and what the decision-maker has actually decided.
- Who reviews: Lawyer competent in the matter and the forum
- Basis: Planning guidance checked against the linked public sources on 22 September 2026. Confirm the current instrument before reliance.
- Why: The traffic light follows the consequence of an error and how much of the output the lawyer must check before it is used.
- Written for: NSW

## Checks the lawyer makes

1. Use only facts that appear in the signed findings.
2. State only the outcome the decision-maker has chosen.
3. Check the letter against the contract or instrument the lawyer has identified.
4. The decision-maker approves the letter before it is sent.

## Notes

- Suggested working checks from the linked public sources. Read the source and confirm it applies to this forum and this date. The checks do not approve software or record that the work is done.

## Practical guide

Jurisdiction: The workplace’s industrial instrument and location

**Deliverable**: A draft outcome letter for the decision-maker to approve.

**Inputs**

- Signed findings
- The decision-maker’s outcome
- The contract, award or policy the lawyer says applies

**Example**: If the findings say the allegation was not established, the letter does not add a warning “for completeness”.

**Stop and escalate when**

- The findings are still draft.
- The letter names a sanction the decision-maker has not chosen.
