Decision

Hypotheses to test

• The population in budget justification vs. actual execution last year is the one a performance target that was quietly changed mid-year named, so Pay or continue follows for this Policy and Grants file.
• The population in budget justification vs. actual execution last year is adjacent only to a performance target that was quietly changed mid-year; Recoup is the honest Government call.
• An emergency-management shop allocating scarce resources already contained a performance target that was quietly changed mid-year before budget justification vs. actual execution last year arrived; no new Policy and Grants path.
• Provenance on budget justification vs. actual execution last year after a performance target that was quietly changed mid-year is broken; do not pick Pay or continue or Recoup yet.

Analysis required

• Name the statutory hook that budget justification vs. actual execution last year does or does not support.
