A first includes taking a broad approach to results-based budgeting, taking social and distributional goals into consideration. A second relies on integrating distributional impact analysis directly into the budget process.

Finally, it discusses the tools, frameworks and data that are needed to take distributional considerations into account as part of evidence-informed policy making
