## Checking plan

**Lawyer-led judgement**

The lawyer makes the substantive assessment. Any permitted AI assistance remains supporting work with its own checks.

- What the AI does: From the regulator's notice and the practitioner's history, extract the proposed action, the grounds, the conditions proposed and the dates into a table. The tool does not write the advice.
- What the lawyer does: The lawyer advises on the proposed suspension, cancellation or conditions, what to put to the regulator, and the review route.
- 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.
- Restriction: The lawyer makes the substantive assessment. Any permitted AI assistance remains supporting work with its own checks.

## Checks the lawyer makes

1. Check the proposed action and its grounds against the notice.
2. Confirm the response date and the review route.
3. Consider the effect on insurance and on licences held in other jurisdictions.

## 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.
