The paragraph can say that two indicators matched. It cannot say the withheld name.

Learning outcomes

After this chapter, you should be able to:

  1. Say what the outbound paragraph may name.
  2. Keep the AMBER domain out of it.
  3. Refuse a draft that "explains" the withheld item.

16.1 A count is not a name. The second reader is looking for the name.

The CCC paragraph says two indicators from the week's alert reached EFBN mail and that both were blocked, and it names only the GREEN domain. The AMBER domain is the item that must not be spelled. A count of two, with one name, is the shape Sam used. Adding the missing name "so the count makes sense" is the breach. Even a hint that names the giftaid domain tells the community what AMBER was holding back.

A second reader checks the outbound paragraph for that name before it is sent, and initials the GREEN-only paragraph beside the send. Those initials are a check of the text. They are not a new indicator, and they are not a signature on the lab print. The lab's community list already omitted the AMBER value. The human check is there because a later sentence could put the name back in.

The office still hears the AMBER match inside EFBN, by a phone call to the chair the same day. The call is not the CCC paragraph. No phone number is printed in this book, so the note cannot add one.

Draft sentence Problem or fit Decision
"Names the GREEN domain and does not spell the other match." The label May send
"Second reader initials the GREEN-only text." The check Keep
"Both names, so CCC can see the pair." Reveals AMBER Reject
"The paragraph includes the chair's phone number." No number is printed Reject

Synthetic case. The paragraph is a classroom feedback note.

Errors and limits

Do not finish the count by typing the withheld name.

Worked answers

EX062. The paragraph may name the GREEN domain and a count that does not reveal the other name. The AMBER domain must be absent. The chair can still be told inside EFBN. No phone number is printed.
