1. a senior [[EXECUTIVE|executive]] who discovers a [[SITUATION|situation]] which may be disastrous to the [[ORG|org]]. Issues orders of a remedying or preventive nature instantly by directive, to remain in [[EFFECT|effect]] until all [[DATA|data]] is in. This is called an [[URGENT|Urgent]] Directive.
''(HCO PL 31 Oct 66 I)''

2. if an [[EMERGENCY|emergency]] situation develops, any [[MEMBER|member]] of that [[AD_COUNCIL|Ad Council]] could [[ISSUE|issue]] what is called an Urgent Directive. It's something that's got to be done [[RIGHT|right]] now, right now, it can't wait till tomorrow. His directive is only good until a [[BOARD_OF_INVESTIGATION|Board of Investigation]] has investigated it and written a right directive. So these emergency directions then have a tendency to be [[WIPED_OUT|wiped out]]. They have to be wiped [[OUT|out]].
