Log the request in the Issue Register as a Request for Change and assess the impact
The Project Manager must first log the request formally in the Issue Register as a Request for Change to ensure it is captured and tracked. Then, an impact assessment is conducted. This is required by PRINCE2's Change Control approach before any decision to approve or reject.
