MaintainedLast reviewed
Key facts
- Human involvement
- YellowClose supervision
- How AI is used
- From the consent form and the notes the lawyer has selected, make a table with one row per risk named in either, recording whether the form names it, whether the notes record a discussion, and the page. Do not decide that a risk was material.
- What the lawyer must review
- The lawyer decides whether a warning case is open. The table does not decide breach.
- Section 60 uses "a warning or other information". Do not add the word advice.
- Keep health and wage records in a firm-controlled tool, not a public one.
- ASCR r 9 and APP 11 apply. Decide if a breach is notifiable under the Privacy Act 1988 (Cth).
