A student must not discuss any examination with anyone outside the Qualification Division. To give examination information to other students in order to assist them shows a misguided understanding of help. A student should pass an examination on the basis that he does know and can apply the data, not on the basis that he knows and can pass the examination. Only by being able to know and apply the data can a student be an accomplished auditor at any level.

Therefore, students are not to discuss examinations with other students for whatever reason.

Further, students who fail examinations or any question thereon are not to discuss such failure or reasons for such with anyone other than the personnel of the Qualifications Division. This regulation includes not only other students, but course supervisor. Data as to examination failures is supplied from the Qualifications Division to the Technical Division, and a student, not knowing the data sufficiently well, can cause Dev-T by reporting false data to a course supervisor as to why the examination was failed.

Any student who feels that he has been incorrectly failed on an examination can report the matter to ethics. This is the proper line for any complaint the student may have concerning an examination, if such still seems incorrect after taking it up with the Qualifications Division.

The following points should be considered in the preparation for mailing of letters:

1. ADDRESS: The name and address of the person to whom the letter is being sent should be typed or placed on the envelope at least 1 1/2 inches from the top of the envelope so as not to be overprinted by the franking machine stamp.

Addresses should be neat, correct, and legible.

2. INLAND LETTERS: Letters addressed to persons residing in England, Scotland, Wales, Ireland or Europe MUST NOT be put in airmail envelopes. There is no airmail as such to these countries and mail is sent by whatever is the fastest route.

Inland letters should always contain in the address the name of the country of the addressee unless the city is well known.

3. AIRMAIL LETTERS: Letters to be airmailed overseas should be put in airmail envelopes, if it is intended by the originator that such be sent airmail, otherwise overseas letters will be sent by the least costly mailing service. It is better for overseas letters to be written on Air Letter Forms as these cost 6 pence in comparison to one shilling and six pence for an airmail letter weighing one-half an ounce or less.

The name of the country should always be included in the address of the person to whom the letter is being mailed.

4. SECOND CLASS AIRMAIL: Only printed matter can be sent Second Class Airmail and such can only be sent in envelopes which can be easily opened (not sealed). Such envelopes can be opened easily if they have tuck-in flaps or a metal clip. The name of the country should be included in the address of the person to whom the printed matter is being sent.

For Letter Registrars wishing to send materials urgently to an interested person overseas, it would be best to send a letter on an Air Letter Form and send enclosures under separate envelope by Second Class Airmail.

If materials for overseas addresses weigh more than an ounce, it is cheaper to mail materials to them surface mail, bearing in mind that surface mail to Australia, New Zealand, and Hawaii is quite lengthy. Letter Registration Packets are an exception and should always be sent Second Class Airmail; however, promotional materials sent free of charge to Field Staff Members if weighing more than an ounce should have Financial Planning okay if being mailed other than by Surface Mail.

Second Class Airmail of printed matter should, where possible, be put in proper airmail envelopes and "2nd Class Airmail" put beneath the airmail stamp.

5. RETURN ADDRESS: The Franking Machine is now designed to mark all letters with the return address.

It is no longer necessary for the Director of Communication to have envelopes stamped with the return address or to have return address stickers and, therefore, this corrects HCO Policy Letter of August 17, 1965 entitled "Return Address" in this respect.

It is now only necessary for the originator of Prepaid Letters and Parcels to see that the return address is placed on such.

6. LETTERS TO BE MAILED: All letters out from a division should be placed in the "Org Letters Out" basket for the division from which they originate.
