INT/CONT HANDLINGS

when an international or continental stat is in difficulty a major evaluation is done for that area at staff level. Likewise an upstat situation can also be evaluated. More infrequently, a major situation may be evaluated that is not directly related to a stat, but nevertheless involves orgs in its implementation. Above categories of evaluations are often loosely terms as Int/Cont handlings or broad handlings. They exist as written by the Commodore (always priority) or Commodore's staff and are generally issued as Aides Orders, sometimes reissued in another format such as SO EDs. (CBO 274)
