| Human involvement | Green: AI drafts, lawyer checks |
| How AI is used | From the whistleblower policy the lawyer has already approved, fill a one-page eligible-recipient card. The fixed headings are: the eligible-recipient categories in s 1317AAC that the policy names; the instruction that a qualifying disclosure's identity, and information likely to lead to identification, is confidential under s 1317AAE unless an exception in that section applies; and the contact channel named in the policy. Leave any heading blank where the approved policy does not supply it. The card contains no facts of a disclosure and no person's name. |
| What the lawyer must review | The lawyer checks the card when the policy is approved, and again when the policy or the named contact channel changes. A staff member uses the card to see who the approved policy authorises and which channel to use. The card is not an assessment of a disclosure, and it is not the policy. |

## Checking plan

**Card checked when the policy is approved**

The tool fills fixed headings from the approved policy. The lawyer checks the card at approval and when the policy or the channel changes.

- What the AI does: From the whistleblower policy the lawyer has already approved, fill a one-page eligible-recipient card. The fixed headings are: the eligible-recipient categories in s 1317AAC that the policy names; the instruction that a qualifying disclosure's identity, and information likely to lead to identification, is confidential under s 1317AAE unless an exception in that section applies; and the contact channel named in the policy. Leave any heading blank where the approved policy does not supply it. The card contains no facts of a disclosure and no person's name.
- What the lawyer does: The lawyer checks the card when the policy is approved, and again when the policy or the named contact channel changes. A staff member uses the card to see who the approved policy authorises and which channel to use. The card is not an assessment of a disclosure, and it is not the policy.
- 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. Copy only headings and the contact channel that appear in the policy the lawyer has approved.
2. Leave a heading blank if the policy does not supply it.
3. Put no disclosure, no allegation and no name on the card.
4. Reissue the card when the policy or the named channel changes, and have the lawyer check that reissue.

## 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.
