The FYDP summarizes programs approved by which official?

The FYDP summarizes programs approved by which official?

• A. Secretary of the Treasury
• B. Office of Management and Budget
• C. Secretary of Defense
• D. National Security Council

Answer: (C)

The FYDP is the Defense Department’s six-year plan of programs and their estimated costs, reflecting what has been approved for future execution. Final approval for the programs included in the FYDP comes from the Secretary of Defense, who signs off on the department’s long-range plan. The Office of Management and Budget, Treasury, and the National Security Council each have roles in budgeting or policy coordination at higher levels, but they do not authorize the DoD’s specific program content over the six-year horizon.
