Registers

Status:	Draft
Source file:	06 Evidence Register; 02 Secondary Research/Source Log; program opportunity validation working set
Sensitivity review:	Completed
Purpose:	Provide a reader-friendly entry point to the project registers published through the controlled MkDocs layer.

Registers support traceability. They help readers see where evidence, source references and product-pathway classifications are recorded without publishing private contact details, raw interview notes or commercially sensitive material.

What To Read Here

Register	Use it for
Source Register	Reader-facing source list for Source IDs cited across published research pages.
Claim And Data Extracts	Pilot source-level claim and data extract page using sub-IDs such as S001-001, with links back to where each item is used.
Product Pathway Register	Current classification of industrial hemp product pathways, confidence levels and evidence thresholds.

Register Rules

Rule	Why it matters
Keep source traceability	Significant claims should be traceable to a source, evidence record or explicit uncertainty statement.
Use claim/data sub-IDs where helpful	Priority source claims and data points can be given stable sub-IDs such as S001-001 so reviewers can see what was taken from each source and where it was used.
Separate product pathways	Seed, food, oil, fibre, hurd, bedding, building-material and excluded cannabinoid pathways have different markets, risks and evidence needs.
Protect sensitive material	Raw notes, personal contact details and commercially sensitive information must remain outside the publishing layer.
Preserve uncertainty	Registers should show confidence, evidence strength and follow-up needs rather than implying conclusions are settled.

The working registers outside docs/ remain the authoritative internal records. Published registers are reviewed derivatives for navigation, transparency and reader reference.
