SOURCE-GOVERNANCE NOTE
What the labels mean.
Claim ID
A controlled identifier links selected public wording to the internal claims registry. It does not mean every interpretation has been independently validated.
Reviewed date
The date records when GVRP checked the cited source. It does not mean the publisher reviewed or approved GVRP.
Official source
Priority is given to primary and official material. GVRP still distinguishes source statements from its own interpretation and program design.
Correction status
Material claims should be revisited when a source changes or a qualified reviewer identifies a meaningful error or limitation.
