(Rex Arul, Georgia)

You can ‘take a decision’ or ‘make a decision’; both are correct. Which one you decide to use depends on which side of the Atlantic you are from. ‘Make a decision’, I understand, is mainly used by the Americans, while the English prefer ‘take a decision’. In terms of meaning, in most contexts, there is little or no difference between the two.
