|Summary=Accept that the a local action ''A'' is said to be available to an epistemic agent ''iff'' that agent employs the norm “''A'' is permissible/desirable”. Also accept the theorem of local action availability as a deductive consequence of this definition and the law of norm employment.



Also accept the local action availability theorem and its deduction:
• Local Action Availability Theorem: a local epistemic action becomes available to an agent only when its permissibility/desirability is derivable from a non-empty subset of other elements of the agent’s mosaic.

|Preamble=The historical instances of the emergence of various local actions suggest that an action becomes available to an agent when the norm stating its permissibility/desirability/etc. is derivable from a non-empty subset of other elements of that agent’s mosaic. First, it is important to appreciate that the availability of local epistemic action ''A'' to an agent amounts to the employment of the norm that says “Epistemic action ''A'' is permissible/obligatory/desirable/etc.”.[[CiteRef::Allen (2023)|p. 79]] Thus, from the law of norm employment, one can argue that for an action ''A'' to become available to an agent, the agent must employ at least one norm and accept one theory from which the norm “Action ''A'' is permissible/desirable” deductively follows.[[CiteRef::Allen (2023)|p. 81]] Therefore, it follows from the law of norm employment that a local epistemic action becomes available to an agent only when its permissibility/desirability is derivable from a non-empty subset of other elements of the agent’s mosaic.
