## 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 property records, inspection reports and safety check certificates, list each standard and safety obligation the lawyer identifies against the evidence held and its date.
- What the lawyer does: The lawyer decides whether each obligation is met, which are overdue, and what the landlord must do before letting or renewing.
- 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. Check each certificate is from a qualified tradesperson and is dated within the required interval.
2. Confirm which standards are in force now and which start later.
3. Confirm the table states the source for every item marked as met.

## 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.
