Official records under inherited access feed purpose-built government skills and a source-cited answer, followed by evidence checking and a human decision with a separate audit trail.

Summary: Google Public Sector introduced Gemini for Government Services in preview, combining prebuilt public-sector skills, connectors and cited answers with existing identity controls. Examples include document review, procurement analysis and freedom-of-information redaction. The release describes page-and-paragraph grounding and audit logging, but performance and adoption claims are supplied by Google and early partners.

Why it matters: Use the preview to build an evaluation rubric, not a procurement shortcut. Require citation accuracy, inherited permissions, complete audit trails and human approval for redaction or policy decisions, then test against representative records before expanding access.
