A description of the purposes and uses for which such system would be deployed; 4. The date on which the pre-deployment assessment of such system was completed; 5. A description of any risks identified by such pre-deployment assessment and any recommendations made by the office of algorithmic accountability in connection with such assessment as to how to minimize such risks; 6.

Whether any person or company not employed by the city of New York would require or have access to such system or the data used by such system. b.
