## Checking plan

**Source-by-source verification**

Keep each question inside management, administration or interpretation, and leave the application to the lawyer.

- What the AI does: From the deed and the issue the lawyer names, list the questions that concern management or administration of the trust property, or interpretation of the trust instrument, and the clause or fact each question depends on. Do not write the application.
- What the lawyer does: The lawyer decides whether to seek advice, settles the questions, and writes the application and any statement in support.
- 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. State each question as one of management or administration of the trust property, or interpretation of the trust instrument.
2. Tie each question to a deed clause or a document in the file.
3. Do not treat the list as the application. The lawyer writes anything that will be filed.
4. Record that protection of the trustee, on the section that was opened, depends on acting in accordance with the advice and on the absence of fraud, wilful concealment or misrepresentation in obtaining it.

## 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.
