Practice question
A single manual contains employee parking assignments and a new binding appeal deadline for all permit applicants. Officials say every provision must be treated identically because all appear in one volume called Internal Manual. Which is best?
- A volume title makes all public effects disappear.
- Parking assignments automatically create an appeal deadline.
- No part of a manual can ever be reviewed.
- The provisions’ distinct effects must be examined; staff-only directions do not make the public deadline merely internal.
- All manuals are constitutional amendments.
