## Checking plan

**Source-by-source verification**

Limit the notice to advice about who the beneficiaries are or their rights, and do not distribute while an application is pending.

- What the AI does: From the advice and the beneficiary list the lawyer supplies, set out the short statement of the advice, the proposed conveyance or distribution, and each person the file shows may be prejudiced. Do not settle the notice or send it.
- What the lawyer does: The lawyer decides whether the question was who the beneficiaries are or what their rights are as between themselves, who must receive the notice, and the words of the notice.
- 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. Use the notice only where the question was who the beneficiaries are or what their rights are as between themselves.
2. The notice states shortly the opinion, advice or direction, and the intention to convey or distribute in accordance with it.
3. The lawyer decides who has rights as a beneficiary that may be prejudiced. Do not invent the time allowed for a recipient to apply.
4. The trustee abstains from the conveyance or distribution during that time and while an application is pending, unless the court has directed otherwise.

## 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.
