A. B. C. D.A.
http://prince2.wiki/Starting_Up_a_Project#ActivitiesWhen a project is part of a program, some activities in the "Starting up a Project" process can be reduced or eliminated since they have already been done at the program level.
Option A: Appointing the project board and producing the project brief may be reduced or eliminated since the project is already part of a program. The program board may have already appointed the project board and provided a project brief that the project can work from.
Option B: Planning the initiation stage and appointing the project manager are still necessary since the project is a separate entity from the program. The project will have its own initiation stage and requires its own project manager.
Option C: Producing additional role descriptions and validating the project product description are necessary for the project team to understand their roles and responsibilities, as well as the product that they are delivering. These activities are still required regardless of whether the project is part of a program or not.
Option D: Verifying the project approach and capturing previous lessons are also necessary for the project team to understand how the project will be executed and to learn from past experiences. These activities are still required regardless of whether the project is part of a program or not.
Therefore, the answer is A. Appointing the project board and producing the project brief are most likely to be reduced or eliminated since the program board may have already appointed the project board and provided a project brief that the project can work from.
