Responses to the AI risks deemed high priority as identified by the Map function, are developed, planned, and documented. Risk response options can include mitigating, transferring, avoiding, or accepting. High-priority risks each carry a planned and documented response naming which of the four options was chosen, with acceptance recorded as a decision rather than as inaction.

These are the artefacts auditors commonly ask for on this requirement, our guidance rather than text from the standard. Your assessor decides what is sufficient in your context, and asks for samples across the period when a report covers one.

Common gaps auditors find
- Acceptance by default because no response was ever planned
- Response option not named, so mitigation and acceptance are indistinguishable
- Plans without owners or dates, so completion cannot be judged
