Direktorin Wolf,
I have recently perused a report of a very fluid situation developing in New Berlin orbit. As your sources may have reported, this is the second of such encounters with recent weeks. Direktorin, I need not tell you that situation like these must be handled with the utmost care. We have the verdammt Order and more AI snooping around, while others make a mockery of our internal validation protocols. You DO NOT need to add to this by firing out of line with the context of the situation. Use §4.3 for its intended purpose - keeping such discourse away from public eye.

Now, I have made it clear to my soldaten that VIPER has jurisdiction over MND vessels, and I suggest you do the same. Next time, focus on keeping civilians and other undesirables away from the area while the situation is being handled. Do your job, the MND will do theirs, and we will do ours - there's no senses in interfering in on-scene operations. We need to present a unified front, and that often means letting someone else make the call. I hope I've made myself clear.

With that out of the way, I would like to put your people to work. I find it unacceptable that unidentified transponders are given such leeway in Rheinland space. I propose an amendment of Section Two of the Laws to include transponder tampering under subversive conduct. Yes, we will catch all the idiots who decided to DIY their installation, but these incidents will also be swiftly resolved under the full weight of the law. And in the case of black operations - I see no reason for a blanket allowance for these on Rheinland space. These so called agents can register on encrypted nodes like any important "guests" of the House.

What I would like from you is an approach about this to your contacts, regarding feasibility, enforcement, etc. If you believe it is doable, I will make my own approach to the Ministry of the Interior and convince them of the same. I'll also bring VIPER in the loop at this point.

I await your report, Direktorin.

Hochachtungsvoll,
Alfred Henze
Großadmiral der Kaiserlichen Rheinwehr
