Practical Example
A Joint Secretary receives approval for an official visit to Geneva. The sanction letter arrives at the Central Audit Support Section, which logs it in the foreign travel register. When the audit party later reviews the officer's travel claims and hotel reimbursements, they cross-check against this register entry to confirm the expenditure was authorized and within sanctioned limits.
