## Key facts

| Fact | Value |
| --- | --- |
| Practice area | [Strata & Community Titles](https://ailawframework.com/practice/strata-and-community-titles.md) |
| Human involvement | Yellow: Lawyer and AI draft together |
| How AI is used | From the levy ledger and the minutes, list each overdue contribution, the due date, the date paid or still unpaid, and any resolution about interest, a discount or a payment plan. Leave the rate, the discount and the plan decision blank. The tool does not decide that interest is payable or that a plan must be offered. |
| What the lawyer must review | The lawyer applies the statute for the scheme's jurisdiction. The regulation text that may change the New South Wales rate, or that may prescribe payment-plan requirements, was not opened. The current percentage under the Victorian Penalty Interest Rates Act was not opened. No Queensland rate is stated, because the module section was not opened. |

## Checking plan

**Lawyer review required**

The responsible lawyer reviews the work against the instructions, sources and intended use.

- What the AI does: From the levy ledger and the minutes, list each overdue contribution, the due date, the date paid or still unpaid, and any resolution about interest, a discount or a payment plan. Leave the rate, the discount and the plan decision blank. The tool does not decide that interest is payable or that a plan must be offered.
- What the lawyer does: The lawyer applies the statute for the scheme's jurisdiction. The regulation text that may change the New South Wales rate, or that may prescribe payment-plan requirements, was not opened. The current percentage under the Victorian Penalty Interest Rates Act was not opened. No Queensland rate is stated, because the module section was not opened.
- 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. Do not apply 10% unless the scheme is in New South Wales and the regulations have been checked for another rate.
2. In Victoria, do not charge interest unless the general-meeting resolution is on the file, and do not insert a percentage from the Penalty Interest Rates Act until that Act is opened.
3. Do not treat a New South Wales resolution that refuses payment plans generally as effective.
4. Leave a Queensland rate blank. No module section was opened.

## 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.
