Six desirable features of explainability for RaC — transparency, traceability, availability, sustainability, links to legal sources, and accountability — assessed against AustLII's DataLex implementation.
Why it matters for NETEVO
The XAI-in-RaC framework is the academic mirror of NETEVO's "paper governance vs. engineered governance" argument. Mowbray et al.'s six features become a board-ready audit checklist: a policy that cannot demonstrate all six is paper governance; a control that demonstrates all six is engineered governance.
