No, you publish, say, edition 1.14 on 1 March 2014. Then a change to an existing procedure is needed on, say, 6 March 2014, which gets published as Supplementary Instruction no.1/14. Then another one the next week as SI 2/14. So now the text in the Manal is incorrect, the new text in the SIs is correct. In the third week of March a Temporary Operational Instruction no.1/14 is published, which modifies the procedure in SI 2/14.

So the original text is modified by the SI, which in turn is modified by the TOI. Once the TOI expires, as all do, then the procedure reverts back to that of the SI.

If procedure changes are being introduced many times a week, you're not going to publish a whole 500 page manual every time a new procedure is introduced.
