The NSE primarily consists of representatives from all four of the main components, which sit in a committee weekly to discuss and plan for issues and problems assigned to them or brought to their attention by their respective services. As well, coordination is done with the Ministerial Coordination Element, wherein those services that are not represented are given a voice.
The NSE primarily consists of representatives from all four of the main components, which sit in a committee weekly to discuss and plan for issues and problems assigned to them or brought to their attention by their respective services. As well, coordination is done with the Ministerial Coordination Element, wherein those services that are not represented are given a voice.


Coordination is done at weekly meetings, which are chaired by the 1st Deputy Minister, with the assistant chair being the current member of parliament assigned to the Ministerial Coordination Element. Representatives follow a generally established protocol of following up on old files or missions to maintain progress, for example ensuring the 2026 Kelekonan Peacekeeping Agreements are maintained and receive the requisite support. Briefs are then given or received based on national security requirements or changes to international or domestic trends, with decisions requiring additional deployment or modifications to existing Ministerial or other directives being pushed to the Prime Minister's Office (PMO) as required.
New decisions are pushed to the NSE staff on a weekly basis as well, and emergency sessions can be called for extraordinary circumstances. NSE representatives are also expected to brief Parliament on National Security issues and are regularly summoned to Parliamentary hearings to brief or answer questions regarding governmental affairs.
== Role Within the Arcer Government ==
== Role Within the Arcer Government ==
Within the Arcer government, the NSE does not have the delegated authority to actually enact policy changes or direct forces. It is strictly a coordinating element for the action arms of respective government agencies and departments. This meaning that in instances where things need to be done, there is required directives and recommendations pushed to the Prime Minister's Office, or the respective bureaucratic channels to enact change. For example, the NSE cannot deploy members of the Armed Forces, but liaisons can work in their own channels with insight and additional information from their counterparts to better inform the General Staff for the required deployment that is likely to materialize from the Prime Minister's Office.
It is uncommon for the Prime Minister to direct the NSE to coordinate on specific issues, as in general the NSE is capable of forecasting issues and trends within the nation's national security framework.
=== National Security Strategy Memos ===
One of the key deliverables that was enacted in the late 2010s was the requirement for the NSE to draft and publish accessible documents on Arcer national security strategy (commonly referred to as NSS), to influence and inform other government agencies on what will be required. This has major impacts on both diplomatic policy and international relations.
NSS Memos are to be published every four years, or at the explicit request of the Prime Minister's Office. There is no set topic or required direction the memos must outline, rather they are broad and cover a range of topics, from counter-narcotics trafficking to combatting socialism and piracy abroad. Specific topics from the Prime Minister's Office that are required as amendments become updated revisions to the most recent NSS Memo.

=== 2022 Memo ===
=== 2022 Memo ===
The 2022 Memo for Arcerion's National Security Strategy outlined the continued threat of Varshan and the impact that the Final War of the Deluge would have on South Crona for some time. It accurately forecasted the inevitable collapse of the Varshani state, and believed that the fallout from this would be ethnic insurgencies and rebel warlords appearing, as was seen in Kelekona and some parts of central Varshan in the years following the war's conclusion. Concurrent to this, a vast amount of internally displaced persons and refugees were likely to come to South Crona, which was assessed to be a bastion of commerce, stability, and prosperity as the war continued. This mass influx of refugees into countries such as Kelekona, Telokona, and Titechaxha would place an incredible burden onto the nations which would be unlikely to cope with the amount and likely attempt to offload many of these migrants onto Arcerion or the New Archduchy.
Recommendations were more support for the Ministry of the Interior, to enhance and support the border services and immigration services. Concurrent to this, the Royal Arcerion Constabulary would need increased funding for unmanned Intelligence, Surveillance, and Reconnaissance (ISR) platforms to assist with border security, as well as the ability to conduct more overt domestic surveillance operations to combat illegal smuggling.
=== 2026 Memo ===
=== 2026 Memo ===
The 2026 Memo outlined a rising migrant issue that was evident with the outbreak of insurgents in Oakham governorate, and the establishment of the Northwestern Border Security Zone. Additionally, it recommended that the Royal Arcerion Constabulary and Arcerion Coast Guard conduct an updated procurement and overhaul of their existing maritime and littoral platforms, as the rising threats of piracy from Istrenya, Malentina, and Telokona were becoming keystone economic issues. The Diplomatic Service was recommended to engage with [[Stenza|Stenzan]] and [[Burgundie|Burgoignesc]] partners, and specifically after the collapse of the South Cronan Congress, [[Paulastra]] and [[Alstin]] to found a trade and defence union to strengthen Southern Cronan ties through collaboration.


It also saw a rise in the instability of [[the Cape]], and outlined further instructions for the Armed Forces of Arcerion to build on the [[2022 Confederate Memo on Defence|2022 Confederate Memo for Defence]]'s recommendations for modernization and reform. The Arcerion Special Operations Command was also advised to conduct preemptive unilateral actions in the Malentine Theatre of Operations (MTO) to combat piracy as the undue effect it had on naval commerce and shipping had become of concern to economic representatives in the NSE.
