## When to use it

Use when objections arrive on a Victorian application, before any response to those objections is prepared.

## Used for these tasks

- [Index the objections and submissions received on an application](https://ailawframework.com/practice/liquor-gaming-and-wagering-licensing/index-the-objections-and-submissions-received-on-an-application.md)

## How AI may be used

The tool lists each objection from the documents the lawyer supplies and marks the time limit from the display date the lawyer enters, and the lawyer checks every ground against the page.

**AI may:**

- Enter the objector's name, the date the objection was received, and a short description taken from the document.
- Calculate the 30th day from the date the public notice was first displayed, using the date the lawyer enters, and flag the count for checking.
- Mark a ground that the page says cannot be considered, when the lawyer identifies that ground in the document.

**AI must not:**

- Do not draft the response to the objection.
- Do not decide that Liquor Control Victoria must accept or refuse an objection.
- Do not apply this index to a New South Wales application.

**The lawyer checks:**

- Confirm the date the public notice was first displayed. The 30 days run from that date.
- Read the objection kit before treating a council email as a complete objection. The kit PDF was not opened.
- Police and community objections are mentioned on the page. The detailed steps opened here are the council steps.
