http://proethica.org/ontology/intermediate#CompletenessinResponsiveTechnicalTestimony
Applied to
Engineer A's responsive testimony before City Planning Board
Balancing with
Proactive Risk Disclosure
Relevance and Pertinence Standard for Voluntary Disclosure at Public Hearings
Concrete expression
Engineer A's stated willingness to provide complete testimony about traffic, noise, and air pollution impacts if questioned demonstrates that the completeness obligation in responsive testimony is acknowledged — Engineer A would not have evaded or minimized these issues if directly asked by the City Planning Board.

0.85
Importance

Interpretation
The completeness obligation in responsive testimony is satisfied by Engineer A's commitment to full disclosure when questioned; the ethical question is whether this satisfies the broader disclosure obligation or whether proactive volunteering was also required.
Invoked by

Tension resolution
Completeness in responsive testimony is fully satisfied; the residual question about proactive disclosure is resolved by the relevance and pertinence standard and the multi-witness hearing structure.
