Q: My question has to do with OCIA and Sunday Scrutinies in a multi campus parish, where the Elect will go thru the rituals at one designated liturgy…I questioned whether all campus liturgies would then do the Year A Scriptures…
or do the Year C scriptures, in this case prevail at the non-Elect Masses?
If, and whenever you can get around to this…appreciate!

A: The lectionary itself permits the use of the Year A readings any year of the cycle. (See the rubric on top of the first reading on these three Sundays.) The OCIA does not require the Year A readings at non-scrutiny Masses in Years B & C.
My practice is to use the Year A readings only at the scrutiny Masses in Years B and C, so that most people hear the variety of passages on display.
