## 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: Working with the lawyer from the decision and reasons, draft the review application with the decision, grounds and outcome sought.
- What the lawyer does: The lawyer confirms the decision is reviewable and the time limit, settles the grounds, checks each statement against the record, and considers a stay.
- 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 the decision is listed as reviewable and diarise the limit.
2. Check each ground against the reasons.
3. Consider whether a stay of the decision is needed pending review.

## 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.
