DECISION LAG: In the context of economic policies, a part of the implementation lag involving the time it takes for policy makers to determine the appropriate policy to undertake. Another part of the implementation lag is the action lag.

For monetary policy, this involves a meeting among the members of the Federal Reserve Open Market Committee. The decision lag is usually shorter for monetary policy than fiscal policy.
