Result, scope, and evidence boundary\n\n**The operative body located and read for this pass is OMB’s revised Statistical Policy Directive No. 3, “Compilation, Release, and Evaluation of Principal Federal Economic Indicators,” adopted in the Federal Register on February 15, 2024, with an express effective date of February 19, 2024.** Its complete republished body consists of an introductory statement and eight numbered sections. The adopted change replaces the former one-hour restriction on public commentary by Executive Branch employees with a **thirty-minute minimum after official release**, retaining the stated exception for designated issuing-agency staff providing technical explanations. The adoption notice expressly says that the prerelease-access provisions were not amended. **Claims C001–C006, C048–C050.** [govinfo.gov+2](https://www.govinfo.gov/content/pkg/FR-2024-02-15/pdf/2024-02972.pdf?utm_source=chatgpt.com)\n\nThe text contains several distinctions that must survive a summary:\n\n- The **22-working-day** compilation-and-release provision uses **“should,”** while the accompanying requirement to minimize the interval as far as practicable uses **“shall.”**\n- Planned method changes for **monthly and quarterly** series require announcement at least **three reports** before the first affected report. For **weekly and annual** series, the text says the announcement **should** precede the first affected report by at least **three months**.\n- The **maximum thirty-minute prerelease embargo window** and the **minimum thirty-minute postrelease commentary delay** have different actors, conditions, and reference events.\n- Section 7 supplies a conditional exception process for **sections 2–6**. It is not an automatic exemption.\n- Performance evaluation is required; satisfactory accuracy, actual compliance, or a correct economic interpretation is not established merely because the requirement exists. **C024–C025, C034–C035, C043–C067.** [govinfo.gov+2](https://www.govinfo.gov/content/pkg/FR-2024-02-15/pdf/2024-02972.pdf?utm_source=chatgpt.com)\n\n**A material reporting-law qualification remains open.** Section 8 retains a reference to an annual congressional report under §3514 of the Paperwork Reduction Act of 1980. The current official presentation of 44 U.S.C. §3514 includes annual-report language **and a termination-of-reporting-requirements note**. I read the relevant current termination clause and its original enactment, but did not complete the incorporated report-list and later preservation-law chain. Consequently, this report distinguishes the directive’s own evaluation and summary language from an unqualified conclusion that the cited statutory annual-report requirement remains independently enforceable. **C068–C073.** [govinfo.gov+3](https://www.govinfo.gov/content/pkg/FR-2024-02-15/pdf/2024-02972.pdf?utm_source=chatgpt.com)\n\n### Research boundaries\n\nAll source access recorded here occurred on **October 27, 2026, America/Los_Angeles, PDT**. The research clock showed October 28 UTC during those accesses; the corresponding Los Angeles date was October 27. No earlier report supplied a substantive premise.\n\nThis pass did not inspect an actual indicator, designation roster, release calendar, evaluation report, dataset, embargoed material, access list, individual, transaction, or alleged violation. Institutional titles appearing below identify offices and legal roles in public texts, not current occupants.\n\n**Identifier convention:** S001, C001, M001, B01, and G01 below mean, respectively, R086-P1-S001, R086-P1-C001, R086-P1-M001, R086-P1-B01, and R086-P1-G01. Full source and claim IDs appear in their registers.\n\n## 2. Source register\n\n### Reading and status conventions\n\n- **Complete operative body** means the directive’s introduction and every provision in §§1–8 were read.\n- **Selected instrument** means the identified clauses were read, without claiming a whole-document or whole-regime review.\n- All PDF substantive readings were of **parsed text**. Printed pagination and zero-based PDF indices are recorded separately.\n- Screenshot attempts did not provide a basis for claiming completed visual inspection: the current-document attempts returned display markers in the accessible result, and the historical-document screenshot timed out.\n- Government-hosted reproductions of the same publication are grouped together. They are **not independent corroboration**.\n- A displayed compilation cutoff, source credit, page-update label, or search result is not an exhaustive amendment or judicial-status certification.\n\n### Table 1A.

Provision-specific comparisons\n\n### Table 4. Comparison of concepts, duties, and limits\n\n| Comparison | Source-supported distinction | What the comparison does not establish | Claim/source crosswalk |\n| --- | --- | --- | --- |\n| Covered PFEIs versus other statistics | Coverage is tied to the Administrator’s designation after federal-agency consultation. The directive does not make every important statistic a PFEI. | Actual coverage of a particular federal or private publication. | C022–C023, C084; S001 §1; S005–S006. |\n| Statistical agency versus designated indicator | Agency roles and statutory authority concern institutions; §1 separately selects series and estimates. | That every output of an institution has the same designation. | C008–C023; S001 §1; S005–S006. |\n| Compilation versus release versus evaluation | Method preparation/change appears in §§4 and 6; dissemination and access in §§2–5; retrospective performance assessment in §8. | A complete survey methodology, methodological validation, or actual evaluation result. | C024–C067; S001 §§2–8. |\n| Promptness versus preliminary accuracy | §2 requires practicable promptness and recommends a qualified lag; §6 requires balancing and, under (c), improvement or delay when its relative-error condition is met. | A universal duty to publish regardless of reliability, or unlimited delay justified by an accuracy label. | C024–C025, C051, C054; S001 §§2, 6(c), 7. |\n| Reference period versus publication date | The period represented and the date of public release are separately described. | That publication date is the date of the economic activity represented. | C024, C074; S001 §2. |\n| First/preliminary figures versus revised figures | Figures must be marked preliminary or revised; routine and nonroutine revisions have different procedures. | A universal “final forever” status, a complete vintage convention, or actual revision size. | C052–C057, C074; S001 §6. |\n| Method update versus economic change | Method changes may affect interpretation; revisions may arise from routine methodological processes. | That a changed estimate proves a newly occurring economic event or causal effect. | C032–C037, C056, C076; S001 §§4, 6. |\n| Monthly/quarterly versus weekly/annual method announcements | The first category uses a mandatory minimum of three reports; the second uses a recommendatory minimum of three months. | Interchangeability of reports and months or a universal fixed day count. | C034–C035, C081–C082; S001 §4; S002 §4. |\n| Announced versus actual timing | §3 announces schedules; §8 evaluates performance against them. | Actual adherence, delay, or violation. | C026–C031, C064, C075; S001 §§3, 8(c). |\n| Ordinary schedule versus unforeseen change | Changes require special unforeseen circumstances plus prompt announcement and full explanation when determined unavoidable. | An automatic excuse for any missed publication or an actual exception. | C029, C058–C060; S001 §§3, 7. |\n| Routine versus nonroutine revision | Routine revisions follow the regular schedule and are consolidated simultaneously; nonroutine revisions require full explanation and release as soon as corrections can be completed. | Which category an actual revision falls into. | C053, C056–C057; S001 §6(b), (e), (f). |\n| Presidential routing versus other prerelease access | The President-through-CEA route is expressly stated; other access is discretionary and subject to all specified safeguards. | A general public, media, employee, or private access right. | C042–C047; S001 §5. |\n| Prerelease window versus postrelease commentary floor | The former restricts how early embargoed access occurs; the latter restricts how soon covered employees comment publicly after release. | That the two thirty-minute provisions are the same rule or create a shared access entitlement. | C045, C048–C050; S001 §5 and responses (6)–(7). |\n| Technical explanation versus policy commentary | The express exception is limited to issuing-agency staff designated by the agency head to provide technical explanations. | Qualification of a particular speaker or permission for premature disclosure. | C047–C049; S001 §5. |\n| Ordinary provisions versus §7 exception | Prior consultation, an Administrator determination, an application, and discretionary authorization subject to necessity and consistency are distinct steps. | A blanket waiver, retroactive permission, or waiver of unrelated law. | C014, C058–C060; S001 §7; S006 §3504(a)(2). |\n| Policy requirement versus observed adherence | Evaluation requirements require examination of accuracy, documentation, release performance, and disclosure control. | Actual compliance, absence of bias, successful security, or public trust. | C061–C067, C079–C080; S001 §8. |\n| Current body versus historical proposal | The 1985 body used one hour; 2019 solicited alternatives; 2023 proposed thirty minutes; 2024 adopted thirty minutes with an express effective date. | That a proposal itself changed the operative rule or that all earlier history was audited. | C002–C006, C083; S001–S004. |\n| Directive reporting commitment versus statutory reporting status | §8 retains a summary commitment and a §3514 reference; the Code presentation includes a material termination note. | Unqualified survival, repeal of the whole directive, or enforceability of the particular statutory report requirement. | C068–C073; S001, S007–S010. |\n| Statistical-policy authority versus economic measurement definitions | Authority addresses standards and coordination; the directive does not define the broader economic concepts requested in question 7. | A denominator, inflation adjustment, stock/flow classification, comparability result, or causal inference. | C017, C020, C062, C077; S001; S006. |\n| Administrative policy versus consumer remedy | Administrative responsibilities are described; private standing, complaint mechanisms, judicial review, penalties, and recovery are not established. | Debt relief, compensation, an enforceable individual access right, or a legal finding. | C078–C080;

They contain no actual or fictional series, person, event, or record.\n\n**Status key:** **A** = selected generic rule answered; **P** = partially resolved because a material interpretation, incorporation, or counting question remains; **U** = unresolved from the selected authorities; **X** = excluded by the authorized scope. Actual applications are excluded in every branch.\n\nFor branches resting on §§2–6, the conditional §7 process in **C058–C060** remains applicable. The table does not assume an exception.\n\n### Table 6. Substantive branches and branch-specific coverage\n\n| Branch/status | Supported conditional rule and exact authority | Missing authority or predicate | Adverse inference to avoid | Next permissible generic public-instruction inquiry |\n| --- | --- | --- | --- | --- |\n| **B01 — P: version unknown** | Use the adopted 2024 body and its express effective date, distinguishing historical and proposed texts. **C001–C006; S001 DATES/body, S002–S004.** | Exhaustive subsequent amendment and judicial-status chain. | A newer host timestamp or old PDF proves current law in full. | Check only later official generic revision/adoption notices for Directive No. 3. |\n| **B02 — A: statutory actor unknown** | Title 31 routes statistical authority through OIRA; the PRA specifies Director/Administrator responsibilities without relieving the Director. **C008–C014; S005 §§102, 1104(d); S006 §§3502–3504.** | Actual lawful action/delegation facts; other applicable law. | A generic office title proves a particular action was authorized. | Read a necessary generic delegation or authority clause, without identifying officeholders. |\n| **B03 — A: designation absent** | Coverage follows Administrator designation after consultation, not importance alone. **C022; S001 §1.** | Any actual designation, intentionally not sought. | A prominent or federal statistic must be a PFEI. | Read additional generic designation criteria or amendments to §1; keep rosters excluded. |\n| **B04 — A: designation review unknown** | Designations are to be reviewed annually. **C023; S001 §1.** | Actual review and results. | Annual review language proves a current roster was reviewed. | Read only generic OMB instructions governing the review mechanism. |\n| **B05 — P: other federal/private statistics** | PFEI designation and statutory agency definitions are distinct scope inquiries. **C011–C012, C022, C084; S001 §1; S005–S006.** | Additional authority for a different statistical category. | All private publications or all agency outputs are covered or exempt automatically. | Identify the generic governing directive for the category, without inspecting actual data. |\n| **B06 — A: compilation quality not established** | High accuracy/reliability objectives and evaluation duties apply, but do not establish observed quality. **C016–C021, C061–C067; S001 introduction/§8; S006 §3504(e).** | Actual quality evidence, excluded. | “Official” means error-free, unbiased, or causal. | Read the exact generic methodology standard only if separately authorized. |\n| **B07 — P: reference-period lag** | Release should occur within 22 working days for quarterly-or-more-frequent series, alongside practicable promptness. **C024–C025, C082; S001 §2.** | Working-day convention and actual reference/release events. | Twenty-two calendar days is a universal strict deadline. | Read official generic working-day/counting instructions applicable to §2, if any. |\n| **B08 — A: schedule announcements** | Last-calendar-year report, each next-release announcement, and December 15 OIRA schedule submission have separate duties. **C026–C028; S001 §3.** | Actual reports, schedule, submission, and any exception. | One announcement satisfies every scheduling obligation. | Read generic §3 implementation instructions, without opening a calendar. |\n| **B09 — A: schedule change** | Special unforeseen circumstances and unavoidable-change determination trigger prompt announcement/full explanation. **C029; S001 §3; C058–C060.** | Circumstances and determination, excluded. | Any late or missing release is automatically excused—or automatically a violation. | Read generic instructions distinguishing §3 changes from §7 exceptions. |\n| **B10 — P: release office and clock times** | One schedule office is recommended; one or two designated daily release times are required. **C030–C031, C082; S001 §3.** | Actual times, timezone, technical clock convention. | A familiar clock time is prescribed universally by the directive. | Read generic time-standard instructions only; do not inspect actual schedules or contact offices. |\n| **B11 — A: planned method change** | A planned collection/analysis/estimation change that may affect interpretation must be announced as far ahead as possible; regular-report placement and possible public comment are recommended. **C032–C033; S001 §4.** | Change category, interpretive effect, and possibility of comment. | Every editorial update triggers an identical mandatory comment period. | Read generic §4 guidance on interpretively material changes. |\n| **B12 — A: monthly/quarterly announcement** | At least three reports before the first affected report is the mandatory stated minimum. **C034; S001 §4; §7 qualification.** | Report sequence and first affected report. | Replace “reports” with months or days. | Clarify only generic report-counting/application conventions. |\n| **B13 — P: weekly/annual announcement** | At least three months is the stated recommended lead time. **C035, C082; S001 §4.** | Month-counting convention and actual event. | Treat “should” as an unconditional fixed-day rule. | Read generic month-counting or applicable exception instructions. |\n| **B14 — A: unforeseeable methodology change** | Special unforeseen changes require full explanation when known and in the first affected report. **C037; S001 §4.** | Knowledge, special circumstances, and report event. | An unforeseeable label eliminates explanation duties. | Read generic instructions for the final paragraph of §4. |\n| **B15 — P: publication form** | Press release or other printed report is the retained wording; a press release is required where it significantly speeds dissemination. **C015, C038; S001 §5; S006 §3504(d).** | Complete electronic-format implementation authority. | A feed, website update, or printed item automatically satisfies all release requirements. | Read narrow official generic interpretation of §5’s retained medium language. |\n| **B16 — A: preparation and databank security** | Prevent premature release, withhold covered material from public-use databanks until official release, and secure prepared release materials. **C039–C041; S001 §5.** | Actual controls, authorization, and events. | Physical-security wording proves a complete cybersecurity standard or actual protection. | Read only generic security implementation rules that are indispensable. |\n| **B17 — A: presidential routing** | Information goes to the President through the CEA Chairman as soon as available, as expressly stated. **C042, C046; S001 §5.** | Actual availability and access, excluded. | Apply the other-recipient window indiscriminately to erase the separately stated route. | Read narrow official explanation of the relationship between this sentence and §5(a)–(d). |\n| **B18 — A: other prerelease recipients** | Access is discretionary and requires all §5(a)–(d) conditions, including necessary safeguards and informed agreement. **C043–C046; S001 §5(a)–(d).** | Authorization, safeguards, agreement, necessity, and timing. | A professional role or agreement alone creates an access entitlement. | Read generic public access-condition instructions; do not seek access lists or agreements. |\n| **B19 — A: embargo interval** | Within the stated access structure, an embargo cannot begin more than thirty minutes before official release; necessity may require less. **C045–C046; S001 §5(c)–(d).** | Actual official time, access time, safeguards, and authorization. | Thirty minutes is a guaranteed allowance or a postrelease rule. | Read generic timing/embargo implementation instructions only. |\n| **B20 — A: recipient responsibility** | Authorized Executive Branch recipients remain responsible for no release before the official time. **C047; S001 §5.** | Actual dissemination and timing. | Authorized receipt permits redistribution. | Read generic recipient-condition instructions without actual communications. |\n| **B21 — A: ordinary commentary** | Covered employees must wait at least thirty minutes after release, unless the stated technical exception applies; later commentary remains possible. **C048–C050; S001 §5; responses (6)–(7).** | Speaker category, designation, nature of commentary, timing. | The floor requires speech at expiration or validates the commentary. | Read only generic interpretation of commentary versus technical explanation. |\n| **B22 — A: technical-explanation exception** | The exception requires issuing-agency staff, agency-head designation, and technical explanation. **C049; S001 §5.** | Each role/content predicate. | Any agency employee or any policy statement qualifies. | Read narrow generic designation/content guidance; no identities or speeches. |\n| **B23 — A: preliminary/revised status** | Preliminary or revised figures must be clearly identified. **C052, C074; S001 §6(a), (c).** | Actual version and labels, excluded. | A newly published figure necessarily represents a new economic event. | Read generic revision-label or version-documentation standards only. |\n| **B24 — A: routine revisions** | Routine revisions belong on the regular schedule and must be consolidated for simultaneous release. **C053, C056; S001 §6(b), (e).** | Routine classification and any authorized exception. | Each revision may be released ad hoc without considering the schedule. | Read generic routine/nonroutine classification instructions. |\n| **B25 — P: relative preliminary error** | A large preliminary/final aggregate difference relative to average period changes requires accuracy improvement or delay until reliability. **C054; S001 §6(c).** | “Large,” averaging convention, reliability criteria, actual quantities. | Invent a universal percentage or assume all delay violates promptness. | Read exact generic statistical criteria implementing §6(c), without a dataset. |\n| **B26 — P: consistent bias** | Signs of consistent bias require corrective steps; same-direction revisions are an illustration. **C055; S001 §6(d).** | Pattern criteria and actual evidence. | One revision proves systematic or intentional manipulation. | Read generic bias-diagnostic standards; no actual-series evaluation. |\n| **B27 — A: nonroutine correction** | Fully explain nonroutine revisions and release as soon as corrections can be completed. **C057; S001 §6(f).** | Classification, correction capability, completion event. | A universal correction-day deadline or permission for unexplained delay. | Read generic correction-publication instructions. |\n| **B28 — A: possible violation before action** | Agency-head consultation is required before action that may violate; an adverse determination permits an exception application. **C058–C059; S001 §7.** | Possible violation, consultation, and determination. | Consultation equals approval or can be omitted because an exception might exist. | Read generic §7 consultation/application instructions only. |\n| **B29 — A: exception authorization** | Only §§2–6 are enumerated; authorization is discretionary and requires necessity plus consistency with purpose, satisfactory to the Administrator. **C060, C014; S001 §7; S006 §3504(a)(2).** | Actual authorization and other-law constraints. | A request grants an exception or waives unrelated law. | Read generic exception criteria and legal limits, without an actual exception record. |\n| **B30 — A: evaluation cycle** | Every issuing agency must submit an evaluation for the indicator every three years on the Statistical Policy Office’s schedule. **C061; S001 §8.** | Schedule and actual submission. | Three years begins at an invented date or proves completed evaluation. | Read generic scheduling instructions, not an actual program schedule. |\n| **B31 — P: accuracy/nonresponse evaluation** | Evaluation must address the specified accuracy, revision, benchmark, nonresponse, and late-response matters. **C062; S001 §8(a).** | Denominators, measurement methods, benchmarks, actual evidence. | A universal response-rate target or validated accuracy follows from the topic list. | Read generic evaluation measurement standards only. |\n| **B32 — A: documentation and release performance** | Documentation accuracy/completeness/accessibility, schedule/promptness performance, and avoidance of early disclosure are separate evaluation subjects. **C063–C065; S001 §8(b)–(d).** | Actual documents and performance, excluded. | Passing one subject establishes all other subjects. | Read generic evaluation instructions for those individual paragraphs. |\n| **B33 — P: additional evaluation issues** | Additional issues require written specification by the Administrator to the agency at least six months before scheduled submission. **C066; S001 §8(e).** | Writing, timing, schedule, month-counting convention. | An informal request at any time satisfies the clause. | Read narrow generic instructions on specification and counting. |\n| **B34 — P: other OMB standards incorporated** | Administrator review concerns conformity with all OMB statistical policies/standards/guidelines. **C067; S001 §8.** | Complete applicable external standards. | Reading Directive No. 3 completes the whole statistical-quality regime. | Identify and read only the next indispensable generic standard in a separately bounded component. |\n| **B35 — P: annual congressional-report reference** | The directive retains its summary language; §3514’s current presentation has a termination note, and §3003 has exceptions and an incorporated list. **C068–C073; S001 §8; S007–S010.** | Exact incorporated legislative entry and complete applicable preservation/amendment chain. | Unqualified statutory survival, automatic repeal of §8, or a completed-report finding. | Read the narrow legislative incorporation and relevant preservation enactments, without actual reports. |\n| **B36 — A: historical alternatives** | The 2019 and 2023 instruments were solicitations/proposals; the 2024 adoption chose thirty minutes and retained the other provisions. **C002–C005, C050; S001–S004.** | Broader earlier history, not needed to apply the authenticated revision text. | “No delay” was adopted merely because it was considered. | Read only a materially relevant adopted revision, not comments or named events. |\n| **B37 — P: failed source or incomplete visual read** | Failed originals remain logged; an honestly bounded official alternative can establish readable text without establishing pixels or exhaustive history. **C007, C083; source/failure log.** | Visual verification and some historical effective/later-law links. | Failure proves repeal, legal absence, or permission to bypass a gate. | Use ordinary official copies or later public republications; preserve remaining limits. |\n| **B38 — U: broader economic concept/denominator** | The directive does not define nominal/real, stock/flow, count/rate, or a universal denominator. **C077, C082; S001 complete body.** | Separate generic statistical definitions and methods. | Import an economics definition or denominator without authority. | Open the precise official generic methodological definition in a future bounded component. |\n| **B39 — U: privacy, enforceability, or remedy** | Authority must conform to law; sharing authority respects privacy/confidentiality; private remedies are not resolved. **C014, C019, C078; S006 §3504; S001.** | Complete applicable confidentiality, review, standing, and remedy law. | The directive creates unrestricted access, damages, or a universal absence of remedies. | Read the exact generic statutory provision for the proposed legal consequence; no case or complaint inquiry. |\n| **B40 — X: actual economic/financial or empirical outcome** | Policy objectives and evaluation duties do not establish actual values, causal effects, adherence, or personal outcomes. **C079–C080; S001 introduction, §§6, 8.** | All actual evidence is outside authorization. | Infer debt trends, inflation, employment, financial suitability, or an actual violation. | Keep actual data and financial decisions excluded; any future work needs a separately defined evidence scope. |\n\n## 8.

No cases or actual conduct inquiries. |\n| **G02 — Earlier original history** | Pre-1985 original instruments and any separate 1985 effective/application authority. | A historical publication date is not automatically an independently verified effective date. | Read only a materially necessary earlier official adoption/date clause. |\n| **G03 — Annual-report statutory survival** | Exact incorporated report-list entry and complete relevant preservation/amendment chain associated with §3514 and §3003. | The directive’s retained citation cannot erase the current Code termination note; the note also cannot be used here to pronounce the whole directive terminated. | Read the narrow legislative incorporation and applicable enacted preservation provisions, without actual report files. |\n| **G04 — Authority amendment completeness** | Every later original amendment underlying the current Title 31/PRA compilations. | Current compiled clauses were read; original-law authentication was bounded to the necessary selected 1995 provisions and reporting qualification. | Open an original amendatory clause only when a specific current-wording or application issue requires it. |\n| **G05 — Counting and technical time conventions** | Working-day/holiday rules, month counting, timezone, clock precision, delivery/receipt conventions. | No universal actual deadline can be calculated from the selected body alone. | Read exact official generic implementation instructions for the particular clause. |\n| **G06 — Undefined statistical criteria** | “Large,” “consistent bias,” reliability criteria, benchmark selection, nonresponse denominator, and averaging conventions. | The directive’s standards cannot be converted into an invented numerical test. | Read the precise official generic methodology standard; no actual dataset or program audit. |\n| **G07 — External OMB standards** | All other policies, standards, and guidelines referenced by §8’s conformity review. | Reading Directive No. 3 does not complete the full federal statistical-quality regime. | Identify one indispensable external generic standard and bound the next component to it. |\n| **G08 — Modern delivery implementation** | Complete interpretation of retained “printed report,” public-use databank, and physical-security language for particular delivery technologies. | The text should not be silently modernized into an operational technical specification. | Read narrow official generic implementation guidance without inspecting a real system or release. |\n| **G09 — Legal consequences** | Private standing, judicial review, enforceability, penalties, remedies, complaint routes, and other-law waiver. | Institutional policy language does not alone establish these consequences. | Read the exact generic statutory/policy authority required for the proposed consequence; no case, complaint, or filing. |\n| **G10 — Visual source verification** | Pixel review of the cited PDF pages. | Parsed text and page mapping do not prove unseen formatting or scan content. | Ordinary official visual access only; preserve current parsed-text bounds until completed. |\n| **G11 — Actual application and economic evidence** | Every actual designation, schedule, access arrangement, release, evaluation, value, denominator, outcome, and all remaining A086 economic dimensions. | No factual application can be inferred from generic publication requirements. | Remain excluded from this pass. No operational, financial, or economic conclusion follows. |\n\n## 12. Researcher self-check — not independent review\n\nThis is a check of this investigation’s own scope and internal consistency, **not an independent review**.\n\n| Check | Result |\n| --- | --- |\n| Prior reports used as premises or source packets | **No.** This pass used newly opened public sources registered above. |\n| Complete current directive body read | **Yes.** Introduction and §§1–8, including all lettered clauses, exception conditions, and final reporting sentence. |\n| Current thirty-minute commentary rule separated from historical one hour | **Yes.** Adoption, proposal, and historical texts are separately identified. |\n| Prerelease maximum separated from postrelease minimum | **Yes.** Actor, trigger, direction, conditions, and technical-explanation exception preserved. |\n| “Should,” “shall,” “must,” “will,” and “may” flattened into one obligation | **No.** Material differences are retained. |\n| Three reports confused with three months | **No.** Operative distinction and historical explanatory-summary limit explicitly recorded. |\n| Section 7 omitted when describing §§2–6 | **No.** Conditional exception route is preserved without assuming an actual grant. |\n| Evaluation duty treated as proof of accurate data or adherence | **No.** Requirement and observed performance remain separate. |\n| Annual statutory reporting duty stated without its termination note | **No.** The note, current termination clause, original enactment, and unresolved incorporation/preservation chain are visible. |\n| Actual series, roster, release calendar, dataset, access list, or report investigated | **No.** Those applications remained excluded. |\n| PDF parsing represented as visual inspection | **No.** Page/index bounds and screenshot limitations are explicit. |\n| Same-publication copies represented as independent corroboration | **No.** Copies and formats are grouped. |\n| Financial, calendar, economic, or statistical model invented | **No.** Source units and missing conventions are preserved without calculation. |\n| Worksheet populated | **No.** All authority, evidence, analysis, and result cells are empty. |\n| Model/UI provenance, local files, hashes, imports, or independent reviewer claimed | **No.** |\n| Component, A086 parent, operational, or publication acceptance asserted | **No.** This pass supplies bounded findings and
