Prepare a consultation response

#Page purpose

Draft, review and approve the formal legal response associated with one routed consultation.

#Before you start

• Sign in as assigned legal advisers and consultation reviewers and confirm WatheeqTech shows /lex/consultations/[id]/response; hidden controls indicate that your account lacks the required permission.
• Open the record from its owning register or a trusted notification so you begin with the correct tenant, record identifier and current lifecycle state.
• Collect the reason, authority and supporting evidence required for any governed decision or state transition.

#How to use this page

1. 1
   Verify the record and state

   Review the original question, requester context, attachments, deadline and any existing response before editing the advice.

2. 2
   Complete the permitted action

   Draft the opinion with legal basis, analysis, recommendation, risk and source references, then save it through the governed response action.

3. 3
   Confirm the transition

   Approve, request revision or archive only when the response state and your permission make that lifecycle decision available.

#Governance and expected result

• Operate only within the tenant, role and record visibility granted to you.
• Record the decision, reason and supporting evidence before completing a governed action.
• Use the page action for the transition rather than changing source data or maintaining a parallel offline status.
• Verify the resulting status, owner, timeline, version or audit event before leaving the page.
