Have you ever made the decision to cut a program? What was the reason, and what was the result?

Don't say, "No, I never have." If you haven't had to cut a program, think of a similar decision you had to make where you prioritized one program's needs over another, perhaps, even if you did not have to cut a program. You could also talk about considerations to cut a program that ended up with a different solution, like reallocating funds from other budget lines.

"Yes, I had to cut a program designed to assist homeless teens by providing access to a computer lab and technology instruction. The program required significant startup costs and oversight but did not serve enough kids to justify the expense. We eliminated that specific initiative but repurposed the computer lab to serve seniors, grade-school children, and teens at different times of the day."
