## Checking plan

**Lawyer review required**

The responsible lawyer reviews the work against the instructions, sources and intended use.

- What the AI does: From the franchisor’s corporate records and current disclosure document, prepare the register profile data, compare it with the published profile, list every difference, and diarise the annual confirmation date and the 14-day rule for any new franchisor entity.
- What the lawyer does: The lawyer confirms each data item against the franchisor’s records, decides whether a new entity or master franchise arrangement must be registered, and confirms the update or confirmation is made by the due date.
- 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 whether the 2025 Code applies to this agreement (entered, transferred, renewed or extended on or after 1 April 2025) and whether a November 2025 provision is engaged, before any template is used.
2. Check each profile field against the franchisor’s corporate records.
3. Confirm whether any new entity in the group must be on the register before it signs an agreement.
4. Confirm the confirmation is lodged by the due date.

## 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.
