See Article 36, UCMJ (10 U.S.C. 836 and 10 U.S.C. 867(g)). This includes the requirement that the Manual must be workable across the spectrum of circumstances in which courts-martial are conducted, including combat conditions.

(3) The Joint Service Committee shall send its draft review to the General Counsel not later than April 15, 1985, and February 1 of each year thereafter.

recommended, the draft review shall so state. If changes are recommended by the Joint Service Committee, the public notice procedures of paragraph (c) of this section, are applicable. If the Joint Service Committee determines that an aspect of civilian practice should be adopted, but recommends that the Manual should not be changed because the proposal would be contrary to or inconsistent with 10 U.S.C. 836 and 867(g) the draft review should contain a legislative proposal. Minority reports, if any, shall be included.

the Office of General Counsel as to the timing and content of such notice.

(3) The notice shall include a brief description of the matters contained in the proposed change, the time and place where a copy of the proposed change may be examined, and the procedure for obtaining a copy of the proposed change.
