## 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 notice, the tenant's recent requests and complaints and the correspondence, build a dated table of what the tenant did, when the notice followed, and what the notice says. The tool does not write the advice.
- What the lawyer does: The lawyer decides whether the notice was given because the tenant exercised a legal right or for a discriminatory reason, what the tenant can do, and writes the advice.
- 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 dates in the table against the correspondence.
2. Consider the discrimination law route alongside the tenancy route and refer to A15 where needed.
3. Confirm the advice gives the tenant the deadline to act.

## 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.
