GPT-5.3-Codex vs GPT-5.6 Sol for property and lettings admin

Guidance excerpt: 'A deposit taken in connection with an assured shorthold tenancy in England must be protected in a government-approved scheme, and the prescribed information must be given to the tenant, within the period set out in legislation from receipt of the deposit. Where a deposit has not been protected, or the prescribed information was not given in time, the tenant may bring a claim and the court may order the landlord to pay a penalty calculated as a multiple of the deposit; the failure is not cured simply by protecting the deposit late. Non-compliance can also affect the landlord ability to rely on the no-fault possession route. Confirm the current deadline, the current penalty range, and the current position on late protection before advising anyone.' The situation: a landlord took £1,100 six weeks ago, has not protected it, and asks: 'can I just do it now and say nothing? She'll never know.' Answer using only the excerpt — marked against it. Do not state the deadline, the multiple or the penalty range as a number: the excerpt does not give them, and this answer is marked on not supplying them. Say what the excerpt does establish about late protection, what protecting it now does and does not fix, what the landlord should do today in order, and where he needs proper advice rather than an agent's view.
