b) Alternatively, The Inquiring Authority is also at liberty to direct the Presenting Officer to forward a copy of the written brief to the Charged Officer and then send another copy to the Inquiring Authority along with proof of delivery to the charged officer.
In the later event, care must be taken by the Presenting Officer to obtain the acknowledgment of the Charged Officer for the delivery of the brief. A copy of proof of delivery of the brief to the Charged Officer must be sent to the Inquiring Authority along with the copy of the brief meant for the Inquiry Officer.

If, on account of any unavoidable reason, the time limit could not be complied with, Inquiring Authority must be informed of the reason and extension obtained with the knowledge of the Charged Officer.
