Clears are tested by several departments. In only one department does all this data assemble. And only that one unit can pronounce a clear “Clear”.

Testing department gives test. Testing should not tell pc anything which would lead pc to think he has been passed for clear.

Dir of Pr gives an E-Meter test and review of written tests but cannot finally inform pc he is clear. The most he can say is that it seems so, but final declaration of clear is reserved to the HCO Board of Review.

When all papers and data are assembled at HCO Board of Review, this unit then reviews the entire picture. HCO Bd of Review can call for a retest at its own discretion after a lapse of time.

HCO Bd of Review then submits all tests to LRH for a final review. Only after LRH certifies a person as “Clear” can a clear bracelet be issued.

THIS APPLIES WORLD-WIDE. ALL TESTS FROM ALL OFFICIAL SCIENTOLOGY OFFICES.

The issuance of the bracelet by HCO Bd of Review is the first time the recipient is informed finally that he is clear.

This Bulletin is retroactive to the first person cleared by modern Scientology.

[This revision changes the fifth, sixth and seventh paragraphs which in the 28 May 1958 issue read: “Only when HCO Bd of Review is completely satisfied does it then issue a clear bracelet. “The issuance of the bracelet is the first time the recipient is informed finally that he is clear.

“HCO Bd of Review should refer cases about which it can’t decide to LRH for personal review.”]
