There are two ways to look at the phrase "make sure there is justification..." 1) plant the justification 2) look and see if there is justification.
Two ways to look at the phrase we want to make sure the evidence supports the action taken... 1) we already know what we are going to do get the evidence to back it up... 2) we want to make sure whatever we do is backed up by evidence.
