Dutch term or phrase: Informatievoorziening door het bestuur
Ik weet dat bestuurlijke informatievoorziening in de Kudoz staat, en ik heb de neiging om te gaan voor "administrative information provision," maar ik wil het toch graag zeker weten. Het klinkt een beetje ambtelijk en dit is een NGO. "Information provision by the board/administration" zal hem toch niet zijn, of wel.. Klinkt vreemd in mijn niet-native oren. Worstel ook nog steeds met "bestuur," zie vorige vraag.

---

Voorts is de informatievoorziening door het bestuur in het reglement geregeld en in dat kader het toetsen van de uitvoering en realisatie van het meerjarenbeleidplan

  -> Thanks Tina

neutral  philgoddard: Your second suggestion would get my vote, but not your first. Management information is information provided FOR, not BY management.// But you've given two answers, one of which (in my opinion) is wrong, making it difficult to vote for.

  -> That is precisely why i added my note!

agree  Olly Pekelharing: I prefer the original option. Plenty of instances where Management Information is provided by a management. Any ambiguity easily cleared up by the context, I would say.
