We recommend a very short-duration, revocable authorization mechanism for essential commitments rather than a full freeze: when cash position and funding gap evidence is unreliable, this path preserves necessary operational flexibility while limiting exposure through clear deadlines, accountable owners, and stop conditions, and can be revoked at any time — an advantage over a full freeze, which is difficult to reverse once executed.

Human-controlled next action
The Group CFO convenes three parties to establish, within a very short deadline, a list of essential-commitment authorizations (including owners, stop conditions, and escalation paths), and requires Finance and Risk teams to simultaneously provide verifiable evidence of cash position and contractual constraints.
What would reverse the recommendation
If, within the authorization window, the financing and risk teams still cannot provide verifiable cash and contractual evidence (U1 and U3 remain unresolved), and the operations team's item-by-item review finds most commitments to be irreversible rather than deferrable (U2 turns into an unfavorable conclusion), the decision should immediately tighten toward a plan closer to a full freeze — because the core assumption behind 'short-term, revocable' (that information would be filled in time and risk kept manageable) has been disproven by the evidence.
