Top priority for VIP references: officers must reply promptly to PM/MP references or face adverse character entries.

Field formations must accord TOP PRIORITY to references from the Prime Minister's Office, VIPs, MPs and Ministers and endeavor to furnish replies to the Board within a reasonable period (around seven days). Non-compliance will be viewed adversely and may attract an adverse entry in the character roll of the officer concerned; heads of units must notify all officers under their charge.
