## Used for these tasks

- [Draft the participant service agreement from the provider's template](https://ailawframework.com/practice/ndis-and-disability-law.md#A55-N20261018-12)

## How AI may be used

AI may complete this validated template for each participant from their plan, the agreed supports and the provider's price list; the provider's lawyer checks the template at setup, and the participant agrees the terms.

**AI may:**

- Fill the schedule of supports from the participant's plan and the provider's price list
- Produce the agreement in plain language or an Easy Read version of the same terms
- Check that the agreement's end date is not later than the plan reassessment date

**AI must not:**

- Must not add charges, cancellation fees or terms that are not in the validated template or agreed with the participant
- Must not set a price above the provider's price list or any applicable price limit
- Must not record the participant's agreement or signature for them

**The lawyer checks:**

- The template has been checked at setup against the NDIA guidance, the Code of Conduct and the provider's registration obligations and price arrangements
- The cancellation and ending clauses are fair and clearly explained, and comply with the Australian Consumer Law unfair contract terms rules
- Complaints, privacy and conflict of interest clauses match the provider's actual policies
