H2: FAQ
Can resource consent teams use AI for submissions?
AI can help summarise themes and organise source material, but staff must verify nuance, evidence, statutory context, and final recommendations.
What consent material needs careful handling?
Applicant information, submitter details, commercially sensitive material, legal advice, site-specific evidence, and draft recommendations all need approved handling.
Where should consenting teams start?
Start with low-risk internal summaries, document triage, meeting notes, RFI preparation, and reviewed communication drafts.
