A minimum requirement for applying the 'change' theme in PRINCE2® is to document the format and contents of the issue register. This ensures that all issues, including requests for change, are captured systematically and managed appropriately throughout the project lifecycle.References: = PRINCE2® 7 Foundation handbook and online resources

One advantage of applying the 'manage by stages' principle in PRINCE2® is that the project is broken down into manageable stages, providing decision points (stage boundaries). This helps in maintaining control by providing opportunities to review and, if necessary, adjust the project’s direction and ensure it does not run on in an uncontrolled manner.References: PRINCE2® Foundation Manual

According to the ‘continued business justification’ principle of PRINCE2®, if a project can no longer be justified — meaning it no longer meets its original or updated justification for a viable return on investment — the funds allocated to it should be returned to corporate, programme management, or the customer. This ensures that resources are not wasted on unjustifiable projects.References: = PRINCE2® 7 Foundation handbook and online resources

The 'Managing a Stage Boundary' process is used near the end of each stage of a project. This process includes the review of the current stage, preparation for the project board to authorize the next stage, updating a project plan, and, if necessary, updating the business case and project initiation documentation.References: = PRINCE2® 7 Foundation handbook and online resources
