- Know the stage
- A proposal is a suggested change; adoption and commencement are separate steps. An allegation is a claim, not a finding. Check which stage the report describes.
- Check the scope
- Jurisdiction means the area or authority involved. A rule may apply only to certain places, people, or situations; look for eligibility conditions and exceptions.
