Definitions

1. are issued at Flag by Flag Finance Office, usually by CS-3 or by authority of CS-3. They contain programs, orders, directions and projects. Where they contain policies they are approved prior to issue by LRH. They are issued in consecutive number series to all Finance Office staffs and FBOs and are master filed by them. They are issued blue ink on red or pink paper (same color flash as Gdn Financial Order, HCO PL 18 November, 1968, Guardians Orders). They have no other distribution unless designated to Flag Aides for info. Any Finance Directive issued locally by FBOs is only after specific approval of CS-3 and is subject to cancellation or alteration by CS-3. Finance Directives have continuous validity and do not retire unless specifically cancelled. Flag Finance Office is located in Dept 19 of Bureau

2. It is separate and distinct from Treasury Bureau

3. Finance Directives do not directly apply to Treasury Divisions unless otherwise stated on the Directive. (HCO PL 24 Dec 70)

4. no Finance Officer personnel may issue any order, Finance Directive or advice which in any way establishes policy, alters policy or cancels policy as only a policy letter properly authorized and issued on lines may do such. All such orders and all Finance Directives are now cancelled. Only properly issued policy letters are to be followed in finance matters and any order, Finance Directive or advice given must only re-enforce existing policy. (HCO PL 16 Mar 72 III)
