Regulations and Rules Governing Programme Planning

The Regulations and Rules Governing Programme Planning, the Programme Aspects of the Budget, the Monitoring of Implementation and the Methods of Evaluation are generally referred to by the acronym "PPBME" because the full title is such a mouthful. The current version of the PPBME is ST/SGB/2016/6 (issued 2 May 2016).

As with all regulations, the PPBME regulations can only be issued or amended by decision of the General Assembly. With regards to the PPBME rules, under General Assembly resolution 53/207 of 18 December 1998, the Secretary-General is instructed to "bring them to the attention of the General Assembly through the Committee before promulgation"
