Dutch term or phrase: alsnog
Ik heb hem al eens eerder gevraagd, maar ik kom er nu toch weer niet uit. Twee voorbeelden:


Met betrekking tot de consistentievan het beoordelingsproces concludeert de Commissie verder onder andere dat:
- het voor de transparantie van het proces noodzakelijk is dat het Projectteam in alle gevallen afdoende toelicht waarom is afgeweken van de beoordelingen van de P-teams en de C-teams;
- het Projectteam deze afwijkingen alsnog, op verzoek van de Commissie, adequaat heeft toegelicht, op basis waarvan de Commissie vaststelt dat van afdoende consistentie in de uiteindelijke beoordeling sprake is;

- in een aantal gevallen de benodigde financiële expertise in een beoordelingsgroep ontbrak, en in zes andere gevallen de financieel expert van het Projectteam tevens dienst heeft gedaan als beoordelaar. In al deze gevallen diende, naar de mening van de Commissie, de betreffende aanvraag nogmaals te worden beoordeeld door een financieel deskundige. Naar aanleiding van tussentijdse rapportage van de Commissie heeft de projectleiding alsnog een aantal aanvragen laten beoordelen door een financieel deskundige.

did ..... subsequently
Explanation:
the Project team did subsequently adequately explain this different course of action

ik denk dat er een combinatie is van 'nadruk leggen op': did en 'nadien/vervolgens/later/achteraf': subsequently

'alsnog' kan misschien vertaald worden als "later toch"


in het tweede geval is "subsequently" alleen al voldoende misschien: zonder 'did'

still


Explanation:
In these examples, it means still. It must still be done.

Notes to answerer
Asker: I have trouble with still because to me, it implies that it hasn't already been done. While in the last example (and the other one), it says: after the committee advised such and such, the Ministry has decided to do it after all. So it has already been done by now, but not as part of the original evaluation. So I don't see how to put still in there. This is obviously wrong: As a result of interim reporting by the Committee, the project management has let a financial expert still evaluate a number of applications.


Peer comments on this answer (and responses from the answerer)
agree  Tina Vonhof (X): Nothing wrong with still, meaning 'later on', or 'at a later date'.

(...) now has (...)


Explanation:
I think I would work it in a sentence using 'now has' or 'in response'.
So: the committee concluded that the project team now has sufficiently ...
And: 'the project management has now...' or 'in response has taken steps to have requests evaluated by a financial expert'
