A CRMA planning term for a national or compiled set of programmes covering the entire territory and adopted by relevant authorities.
National programme is the CRMA planning frame for public exploration coverage. It points to an authority-prepared and adopted programme covering the entire territory, not to a company exploration plan, individual project permit, supplier due-diligence programme, or proof that a mineral occurrence has been found.

Use national programme when mapping whether exploration information comes from an official national or regional authority programme rather than from a single company project, commercial supplier, or site-specific evidence package.
A national programme can help explain why exploration data exists and how it is organized. Minespider treats it as public planning context that can support raw-material evidence, while keeping it separate from permits, project status, and supply-chain proof.
