I fear it is a lesson buried. This issue was raised after people were affected in Trance 1. A Sgt was 3 days short of his IPP. More were affected in Trances 2 and 3. If no one is affected in Trance 4 I suggest this will be a fluke rather than design. To date no one in Government, the MOD or the Chain of Command has acknowledged this as an issue that needs attention. For me the worst part has been the defence of this situation by senior officers. People who know the significance of the IP.
