In the current redrafting of JDP 1-10 and in future subordinate doctrine and instructions regarding CPErS: (1) plain English, simplicity of structure and brevity should be given greater priority while allowing for the target audience and complexity of the subject matter; (2) the wording should be thoroughly assessed to ensure (a) that material is not unnecessarily duplicated and (b) that the wording and diagrams are clear and readily understandable to the commander who may need to consider and apply the guidance on the ground; and (3) timescales must be stated clearly both in the text and in flow diagrams.
