Check the Victorian gateway for pure mental harm arising from shock
Key facts
- Human involvement
- YellowClose supervision
- How AI is used
- In a firm-controlled tool, row whether the claimant was at the scene and the relationship the documents state, against section 73 of the Wrongs Act 1958. Leave both findings, and any psychiatric-illness finding, blank.
- What the lawyer must review
- Decide the gateway. The tool does not label a relationship as close.
- Do not define close relationship. The opened section does not.
- Leave recognised psychiatric illness as a separate question.
