## Key facts

| Fact | Value |
| --- | --- |
| Practice area | [Franchising & Distribution](https://ailawframework.com/practice/franchising-and-distribution.md) |
| Human involvement | Red: Lawyer writes; AI may check, clarify or collect data |
| How AI is used | Build the register of prescribed items in the Code schedule, including the November 2025 capital expenditure and specific purpose fund items, record against each the source paper supplied for it, then flag items with no source and figures that differ between papers. The tool writes no part of the disclosure document or the directors’ solvency statement: no draft, no first draft, no shell, no populated fields, no suggested wording. Check the document in hand, the lawyer’s own or the franchisor’s, item by item against the ACCC April 2025 model, confirm the four-month annual update was done, and list every figure and earnings claim with no source on the file. |
| What the lawyer must review | Confirm the April 2025 model disclosure document was used Check the November 2025 items: capital expenditure and specific purpose funds Check the four-month annual update and any earnings claims Re-derive every figure |

## 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: Potential support includes extracting and organising information and preparing preliminary structure or wording. Confirm the tool’s capability and permitted scope.
- What the lawyer does: Set the scope, verify the evidence, resolve exceptions and approve the final output for its intended use.
- Who reviews: Responsible lawyer with competence in the matter
- Basis: Suggested checking approach based on the task guidance. Complete the assessment for the actual tool, information and jurisdiction.
- Why: The plan reflects the described work and review requirements. Policy colours are not used to determine permission or checking.

## Checks the lawyer makes

1. Trace every relied-on figure to its source, confirm dates and assumptions, and independently recalculate totals or derived amounts.
2. Calculate operative dates independently from the current rule and actual triggering event. Check exceptions and record the verified deadline.
3. Verify the applicable jurisdiction and the version of each relevant law, rule or instrument in force at the material time.
4. Confirm the output against the client’s instructions and the complete relevant source material, including omissions or contradictions.
5. Resolve exceptions and record the responsible lawyer’s approval of the exact output and intended use.

## Notes

- Confirm the required checking with the responsible lawyer before work starts. The checking approach does not establish permission to use AI.

*Practice guidance for planning and review. Confirm current primary sources and the requirements of the actual matter. This is general information, not legal advice.*
