It's the politicians responsibility.
If you are say, writing IP and finance code, is it your responsibility to seek legal counsel or is it the legal profession's responsibility to somehow find you, discover what you are doing, and then impose themselves upon you?
- chrisfinazzo 6y agoIn public companies, the process is a bit different, but the idea is the same. Say the CEO or other senior management "writes" a press release... (I put this in quotes because they don't put pen to paper, it's done by someone else obviously, but these are their words) It may be copyedited by Comms for tone and grammar, as well as fact checked by someone who is an expert in the subject - but also by Legal if it touches on relevant issues. In that case, they will seek you out, if only for CYA reasons, before it goes out the door.
