Extracts from HCO Policy Letter of April 7, 1961, "JOHANNESBURG SECURITY CHECK", published by "Hubbard Communications Office, 23 Hancock St., Joubert Park, Johannesburg (Issued saint Hill):

This is the Johannesburg Security Check sheet further amplified by myself. This is the roughest security check in Scientology. We will call it the "Jo'burg Security Check'

["myself" refers to Hubbard — Note by KB"]

The following statement should be read or quoted to the person being Security Checked: 'We are about to begin a Security Check. We are not moralists. We are able to change people. We are not here to condemn them. While we cannot guarentee you that matters revealed in this check will be held forever secret, we can promise you faithfully that no part of it not any answer you make here will be given to the Police or the State. No Scientologist will ever bear witness against you in Court by reasons of answers to this Security Check. This Security Check is exclusively for Scientology purposes. The only ways you can fail this Security Check is to refuse to take the test, or fail to answer its questions truthfully or if you are here knowingly to injure Scientology. The only penalty attached to failure of this check is processing or our refusal to employ you or issue you a certificate, and this will only happen if we find that you are trying now to injure Scientology. You can pass this test by (1) agreeing to take, (2) answering each question truthfully and (3) by not being a member of a subversive group seeking to injure Scientology.'
