1. the
command line from External
HCO Flag and External
HCO FOLOs to
orgs runs via the
Flag Management Bureau. There is no other
command channel. The functions of External
HCO are quite
different than those in HCOs of
orgs, and serve to augment and back up activities already underway in
orgs, as well as to serve in the direction and
establishment of the international growth of
Scn. External
HCO Flag has the
final say on all
HCO matters. External
HCO duties are:
(1) to ensure adequate
recruitment and hiring in
Sea Org and
Scn orgs, and that all newly recruited and hired
personnel are properly routed and
trained prior to
posting as well as after.
(2) to ensure that all
orgs post their
personnel correctly, and that proper
org form and
complements are used to achieve maximum
production, in the
orgs.
(3) to ensure the administrative upkeep of
personnel files in all organizations, and the upkeep of the
Central Personnel Office files, where records of every
staff member of every
org and
operation past and present are kept.
(4) the
training of
personnel for
future expansion programs, and their
placement.
(5) to ensure that
communications in the
form of
issues are produced in abundance, so that
management can occur and
knowledge can be exported and thereby used.
(6) to ensure that
justice and
ethics procedures are followed. Also that the
rights of individuals are protected, and that adequate correct
justice or
ethics is applied for maximum
production to occur.

HCO is established in the
Flag Bureaux. It is
Bureau 1. It comprises three branches:
(1)
Personnel Branch,
(2)
Mimeo Branch,
(3) International
Justice Branch. The head of the External
HCO Bureau is the External
HCO Chief. He has
FB Aide status but is called "
Chief' so as not to confuse the
post with the
staff post of
CS-1.
