| Human involvement | Yellow: Lawyer and AI draft together |
| How AI is used | From the register extract, record the application date, the registration date, whether the design has already been renewed once, and whether payment is online or by another method. Record both office statements of the renewal window. Do not choose between them and do not file the renewal. |
| What the lawyer must review | The lawyer reconciles the two office statements, decides whether this is the one permitted renewal and whether it is in time, and pays the fee the current page states. |

## 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: From the register extract, record the application date, the registration date, whether the design has already been renewed once, and whether payment is online or by another method. Record both office statements of the renewal window. Do not choose between them and do not file the renewal.
- What the lawyer does: The lawyer reconciles the two office statements, decides whether this is the one permitted renewal and whether it is in time, and pays the fee the current page states.
- 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 register already shows one renewal. Both pages say there is only one renewal.
2. Record both the application date and the registration date, and do not pick which five-year period applies.
3. Confirm a late renewal is still inside the six-month grace period stated on the renewal page.
4. Confirm the tool has not filed the renewal.

## 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.
