A P P E NDIX 4 S TAT E L E S S B Y D E C R E E A P P E ND IX 4 (Unscientific or proxy) Sample selection of citizenship revocation events based on open source reporting, March 2024 - December 2025 Observation: Our organisations collated, from overwhelmingly, but not exclusively, Englishlanguage sources, reports of GoK citizenship revocations. As we do not have access to the Official Gazette, Kuwait al-Youm, the data collected was only ever intended to be symbolically representative of overall GoK conduct and in order to develop a proxy for impact assessment. We uploaded the data - around 114 pages of media platformsʼ reports - to ChatGPT5.2. These reports are cited throughout this text. We ʻaskedʼ ChatGPT5.2 that it structure the information in a chronological event table, with (by column) number impacted; reason (s) cited for the revocation, including by generating a typology or category list of those reasons where there is significant degree of correlation; source details, including the URLs of the reports. We requested an observations column to which we added additional material.
