CGOV.10:5.2 - Design reviewed, operation not yet observed

A new payment control was designed last week. An independent reviewer examined its design against stated criteria and identified no design deficiency within that scope. The board asks whether the control operated effectively for the previous quarter.

The requested operating period predates the control. The design result cannot answer that question. Recover the prior arrangement and its available evidence if that historical question matters; use the new design result for its own purpose.

For future operation, the responsible participants must put the control into effect and generate whatever observations the selected assurance question requires. A fixed waiting period alone supplies no result. If the immediate decision concerns a bounded introduction under known conditions, evaluate that decision without pretending that a quarter of operation has already occurred.
