Accountability

Duty Mapping & Violation Detection

Maps statutory duty violations to specific actors and regulatory bodies. Links evidence to relevant professional standards and complaint pathways.

Duty MappingActor AttributionRegulatory RoutingBreach DetectionEvidence Packaging

The Problem

You’ve found the contradictions, the bias, the unsupported claims. Now what? Duty breaches identified in analysis aren’t actionable until they’re mapped to specific professionals, linked to the standards they violated, and routed to the correct regulatory body with a properly structured evidence package. Without this final step, findings remain observations instead of complaints.

How It Works

  1. 1Map relevant statutory and professional duties to each actor
  2. 2Identify where actions violated duties
  3. 3Link violations to specific individuals
  4. 4Match breaches to appropriate regulatory bodies
  5. 5Organize evidence for complaint submission

Inputs

  • Entity registry
  • Timeline
  • Contradiction findings

Outputs

  • Duty breach report
  • Regulatory routing
  • Complaint packages

Use Cases

Professional misconduct complaints

Building structured HCPC, GMC, or SRA complaints where each allegation is linked to a specific professional standard, supported by cited evidence.

Regulatory filings

Assembling Ofcom complaints (Broadcasting Code violations), ICO complaints (data protection breaches), or LGO complaints (maladministration) with evidence packages structured to each body’s requirements.

Civil claims preparation

Organising findings into a litigation-ready format: duty of care established, breach identified with evidence, causation traced through the timeline, loss documented.

Technical Approach

  • Statutory duty mapping maintains a structured database of professional codes, regulatory standards, and statutory obligations keyed to role and jurisdiction
  • Actor-duty assignment cross-references resolved entities and their roles against applicable duty frameworks, tracking when duties commenced and ended
  • Breach detection applies rule-based matching between engine findings and specific duty provisions, with confidence thresholds to filter noise
  • Complaint template generation produces body-specific output formats: HCPC Fitness to Practise, Ofcom Broadcasting Code, ICO complaint framework, and LGO maladministration template
