PSD.14:4.2 - Name the premises and observations that can change the answer
For each material condition, connect the premise to the recommendation claim, compared alternative, model, protection condition or problem boundary that uses it. State what difference would change the current decision-support result and who can supply or interpret the needed evidence.
The observation may concern an expected consequence, an assumption, a new opportunity, a source’s qualification, a participant’s material objection, a protection breach or a changed authority condition. It need not be a numeric metric. A new affected group can reopen scope even while existing performance indicators remain favourable.
Use a small relation account such as the following; it is ordinary working content, not a prescribed register.
| Follow-up position | What must be recoverable |
|---|---|
| Current premise and receiving use | The exact claim, configuration, horizon and recommendation or decision-support result that relies on it. |
| Observation or source return | What evidence could test or change it, from which observation, supplier, participant or authoritative source. |
| Interpretation | Who can qualify the evidence, under what Method and uncertainty, and who judges its decision significance. |
| Signpost and reconsideration condition | The observable indication, the condition that makes reconsideration necessary, and the source of any threshold or protected limit. |
| Timing and access | When evidence is needed, delay in obtaining and interpreting it, access and disclosure conditions, and the effect of a missed observation. |
| Next result and owner | Which source, model, comparison, formulation or recommendation would change, and who retains the later choice or operational authority. |
A signpost is something watched because it can reveal a material change. A reconsideration condition states when that information requires a named question to be reopened. Neither is automatically a decision to change action. An operational rule may separately authorize a response to a defined signal; its authority and conditions must be established through that rule.
Choose timing from the consequence of late knowledge, not a universal calendar. If observation plus interpretation and authorized response would arrive after the relevant decision window, move the observation earlier, choose a feasible proxy with its limits, change the arrangement, or return that the promised follow-up is not adequate. Do not invent a threshold to make the table complete.
