Executive Order HC400.1 Planetary Arrival and Departure Procedures Article Approved by the Imperial Security Bureau and Imperial Board of Culture
Across the galaxy, standard programming is abruptly cut and replaced by the spinning emblem of the New Order. The image gradually fades to a view of a press conference room within the Imperial Palace. At the head of the room, an unknown man stands behind a single podium wearing a plain, black uniform. While the man's name is not known, the crest of the last standing Emperor, Emperor Lamar, serves as a notification to all that this particular individual was a member of Lamar's Inner Circle. It's an insignia that the present standing Regent and Acting Head of State himself does not even possess.
After a brief pause, the unknown man begins to read from a datapad...
---------------------------
Effective Immediately,
The following restrictions are set in place regarding transit to and from planets under Imperial control:
All vessels traveling through Imperial controlled space are required to comply with all Imperial laws and sanctions regardless of citizenship status.
Failure to obey instructions from local Port Authority or the Imperial Military will result in a vessel being disabled and immediately recovered or boarded for security reasons.
All ships without an Imperial registration are also subject to recovery or boarding upon initial contact. Ship registrations can be confirmed by local Imperial authorities at any time assuming the ship's owner is a legal citizen of the Galactic Empire.
Once docked or landed, vessels will be searched and scanned. Crew and passengers will be photographed; DNA samples will be taken. The collected data will be registered along with the individual's name within the Imperial Database. All information will be cross checked with the Imperial Database to ensure no outstanding warrants or restrictions are currently active within any person's file. Should there be any causes for concern or possible problems, the person(s) in question will be detained and interrogated.
The above process will be completed at an orbital space station first and then completed once more when the vessel lands at a space port for the Coruscant System.
All vessels departing any Imperial planet must have completed registrations on file for all crew and passengers. Attempting to subvert these procedures shall be classified as violation of the following edicts of the Galactic Empire Code of Laws:
Summary Offense
1.6- FAILURE TO OBEY ORDER OR REGULATION
Indictable Offense
2.3- ESPIONAGE
The Imperial Throne reserves the right to amend these procedures at any time without prior notification.

As the reading concludes, the man looks out into the small assembly of reporters invited to the Palace to address this new development. "Questions?"
"Yes umm..excuse me..."
The man in black simply nods to the woman that had eagerly jumped to her feet.
"Thank you. What are the Regent's thoughts on how this will affect public opinion for Imperial rule? Particularly given certain recent developments on many of the Empire's former holdings."
The man's response was clipped and cold - a testament to his position as an Advisor to the Throne. "His Excellency believes it will greatly increase security amongst Imperial systems. Any individual that views this as a threat is, obviously, not a loyal Imperial citizen with nothing to fear." The man quickly turned to recognize another reporter, a male this time.
"We've received rumors that numerous internal policies have been enacted amongst the various Imperial services. Yet...this is the first public policy to be introduced...why?"
"His Excellency realizes that as Regent he does not have the authority to enstate official legislation without the approval of the Council of Moffs. As such, he's kept his changes largely internal while allowing the Sector Moffs to administer their areas of space as necessary. He believes in empowering the Moffs rather than himself." The Advisor recognized one final person. "Last question."
"When does the Council of Moffs expect to make a decision on the next Galactic Sovereign and who are the present candidates?"
"Lord Centurion, Grand Vizier Lytear, Lord General Johnson, Grand Moff Jansen, and ISB-General Darin Drek have all been put forth as candidates. The Council of Moffs expects to have a final decision out within the next week or so." Without hesitation, the man turned and exited the room.
Shortly thereafter, original programming was fully restored across the galaxy.
