01
Selection and appointment
Reviewer suitability considers education quality knowledge, professional experience, analytical capability, communication, and any specialist expertise needed for the assignment.
02
Evidence and questions
Reviewers evaluate what has been provided, identify gaps, and ask focused questions. They should not invent requirements or act as paid consultants to secure an outcome.
03
