Didn't they teach you promptness in the RN?

I'm certain you wouldn't have me put promptness before gallantry.

This promptness in solving problems which is made possible by proximity to the persons concerned constitutes a further comparative advantage of the RCUs.

The Centre is also studying ways to improve the current methods of disseminating information on human rights, in terms of efficiency, promptness and responsiveness to the needs and expectations of the public.

We appreciate the promptness with which various Governments, particularly those in our region, including Australia, New Zealand and the United States of America, continue to respond when natural disasters occur in small island countries of the region, including my own country.

The initial experience with this procedure indicates that specific criteria both technical and with respect to duration must be established for investigations by the Criminal Investigation Commission, so that the investigations may fulfil the requirements of promptness, independence and efficiency, it being understood that, if they do not, it would mean the recommendation was not being implemented.

Suffice it to mention by way of example the determination and promptness with which the CSCE, upon the request of the Republic of Moldova and in coordination with the United Nations, got involved in the settlement of the grave situation facing the Government of the Republic of Moldova in the eastern part of the country, where the troops of a foreign army are still to be found.
