In the Oplan Kandado process, which sequence correctly describes the steps leading to the 48-hour notice under Oplan Kandado?

• A. Revenue Officer submits the report to the Investigating Office -> Review Board -> Approval by Chair -> Issue 48-hour notice
• B. Investigating Office issues the 48-hour notice directly
• C. Chair issues the 48-hour notice after independent review
• D. Review Board issues the 48-hour notice without Chair approval

Answer: (A)

This item tests how the Oplan Kandado process uses a chain of oversight before issuing a 48-hour notice. The correct sequence starts with the Revenue Officer preparing and submitting the report to the Investigating Office for initial review. The Investigating Office then passes the case to the Review Board for independent assessment of the facts and the proposed action. After that independent review, the Chair must approve the action. Only after this approval is the 48-hour notice issued. This flow ensures fast enforcement when needed while preserving due process and multiple levels of accountability. Directly issuing the notice from the Investigating Office bypasses independent review and the Chair’s authorization. Skipping the Review Board or Chair steps would remove essential checks, and issuing solely after independent review without the preceding submission and review steps would omit part of the required chain of accountability.
