ADM.8:4.4 - Return the bounded permission result

State which action by which performer is permitted, under what action-changing conditions, or why the required basis is absent or unresolved. Include the relevant source or decision reference where the recipient needs it to rely on the result.

Apply the ordinary service response to an established negative condition. If a distinct alternative basis is actually claimed, investigate that question. A missing grant, conflicting evidence and a settled prohibition need not receive the same response.

Keep a request for permission separate from the received grant. Use ADM.6 to obtain a missing competent answer or resolve an unavailable authority arrangement. The handler does not acquire the authority by documenting the gap.
