Imperial Warrant

From Traveller Wiki - Science-Fiction Adventure in the Far future

Instrument of power issued at the highest levels of government. A warrant is a written or electronic document provided to trusted agents of the Imperium as a method of bypassing the bureaucracy. Typically, a warrant is provided by the Emperor to an individual who utilizes the power it provides to accomplish some mission. Missions may include establishment of colonies in areas requiring development, the assumption of military command in the midst of a crisis, and the unilateral establishment of new noble lines to administer provinces which have suffered from war or economic collapse.

It is possible for nobility other than the Emperor to issue a warrant, though the scope of the warrant is limited to the area of control of the nobility.
