AUDITING BY LIST
  1. a technique using prepared lists of questions. These isolate the trouble the pc is having with auditing. Such lists also cover and handle anything that could happen to a student or staff member. (LRH ED 257 Int)
  2. the earlier genus of this process was sec checking on the Joburg. Any list can be used. The questions asked are generalized and without time limiters; i.e. Has a withhold been missed? Have you been given a wrong goal? etc. If the line when asked has an instant read, say “That reads” then “What do you consider this could be?” or “What considerations do you have about this?” Let the pc answer all he wants to. This is continued until the line goes clean. If the line does not read say “That’s clean” and move on to the next line of the list . This process gets charge off the case. (HCOB 23 Apr 64) [This process was later revised as follows.]
  3. we now F/N everything, we do not tell the pc what the meter is doing. This changes auditing by lists in both respects. We do not say to the pc, “That’s clean” or “That reads.” Use any authorized published list. Green Form for general review, L1C for ARC breaks, L4B for listed items, list errors. You are looking for an instant read that occurs at the end of the exact syllable of the question. If the question reads look expectantly at the pc. You can repeat the question by just saying it again if pc doesn’t begin to talk. (HCOB 3 Jul 71) [The above is a brief summary only. The full exact procedure can be found in the referenced HCOBs.]
