## 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 agreement register, list every agreement whose term ends within the notice window, calculate the latest date for the end of term notice, and draft each notice from the validated template stating whether the franchisor will extend or grant a new agreement and, where it will, that the franchisee is entitled to a copy of the disclosure document.
- What the lawyer does: The lawyer confirms the franchisor’s decision for each franchisee, checks the term and any options against the executed agreement, and confirms each notice is given in time and in writing.
- 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 expiry date against the executed agreement and any extension or option exercised.
3. Confirm the franchisor’s renewal decision for each franchisee is recorded in writing before the notice is sent.

## 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.
