Finance Directors of Departments and of all other centrally funded government bodies have been asked by the head of the Government Finance profession to ensure that all those engaged in creating and planning spending proposals or in reviewing and approving them receive training and accreditation through the Treasury Better Business Cases programme. This supports a consistent, professional approach to the development of proposals that are best social value for money throughout the public service.

Green Book practitioners and reviewers may also benefit from the wider collection of accompanying guidance and materials.
