What this object links to

Every relation appears below as a path: from the source with its locator, through the conditions and exceptions of the object carrying the relation, to the consequence. A locator belongs to a statement in the data and not to a relation, so the source is the source anchor of the carrying object.

What this object states

Official fact

Attributable to a named primary source, with a locator. Where they differ, the official source prevails.

prEN 18229-3 (AI trustworthiness framework, Part 3: Transparency and human oversight) is the JTC 21 deliverable under M/613 addressing Articles 13 and 14 of the AI Act: transparency and provision of information to deployers, and the design for effective human oversight of high-risk AI systems. As at June 2026 the deliverable was at the drafting stage. It has not yet been published as an EN and is not cited in the Official Journal. This deliverable concerns Article 14 (high-risk) and not the Article 50 transparency obligations, which apply since 2 August 2026.

Our interpretation

Our own reading. It can change without the law changing, and it is not the position of a supervisory authority.

Human oversight is the obligation that most often exists on paper and fails in practice. Article 14 requires the designated person to be able to genuinely understand, override and reverse the output. A staff member with thirty seconds per case and no mandate to deviate is not human oversight, only a signature. The common mistake is waiting for this standard while the bottleneck is not technical but organisational: mandate, time and escalation route.

Recommended step

A practical step we consider appropriate. Not an obligation following from the Regulation.

Describe per high-risk system who exercises oversight, what information that person sees at the decision moment, how much time is allotted, what mandate exists to deviate, and how a deviation is recorded. Those four answers are the core of your Article 14 evidence and will not change with the final normative text.
