Economic Appraisal & Business Case Development Training
(1 & 2 Day Courses)
Economic Appraisal & Evaluation using “The Northern Ireland Practical Guide to the Green Book” (DFP, 2003)
NI Public Expenditure amounts to over £10 billion annually. The Northern Ireland Practical Guide to the Green Book (NI Practical Guide) is designed to manage this expenditure by representing current Department of Finance & Personnel (DFP) guidance on the appraisal, evaluation, approval, and management of policies & projects. Per the Guide, all proposals planning to spend or save public money (including EU funds), or change the use of public resources, require evidence of suitable appraisal, approval, management & evaluation.
