Tools and Resources for Parliamentarians

    Next

As part of TBS efforts to improve reporting to Parliament, this website provides Parliamentarians with quick access to both financial and non-financial planning and performance information of individual departments and the Government of Canada as a whole.

The Reporting Cycle

The Reporting Cycle illustrates the timing, events and reports related to the provision of financial and non-financial planning and performance information to parliament. The documents within the cycle support both the Government's efforts to effectively plan and evaluate its performance, and Parliament's budgetary, appropriation and accountability functions.

The Budget, which is typically tabled six weeks prior to the beginning of the fiscal year (April 1), identifies the broad spending priorities of the Government, and details how the Government plans to collect and invest taxpayers' money. The spending plans of the Government are outlined in greater detail within Parts I and II of the Estimates, which delineate the total voted and statutory expenditures of the Government and individual departments and agencies. Parliamentarians consider the information included in the Main Estimates when voting on the Budget and appropriations bills in Parliament. Parts I and II are supported by Part III of the Estimates, which is composed of two parts: Departmental Reports on Plans and Priorities (RPPs), and Departmental Performance Reports (DPRs). Canada's Performance report is tabled by the President of the Treasury Board, and is a chapeau piece to the DPRs that outlines how the Government of Canada contributes to Canada's performance as a nation. The Public Accounts of Canada is the annual report summarizing the financial transactions made by the Government of Canada during a given fiscal year ending at Mach 31. The Pre-budget consultation process begins in the fall with the tabling of the Economic and Fiscal Update, which provides an annual update on the national economic and federal fiscal situation leading to the budget-planning process. The fiscal projections in it form the basis for pre-budget policy discussions. The President of the Treasury Board tables Supplementary Estimates to obtain authority of Parliament to adjust the Government's expenditure plan, as reflected in the Estimates for that fiscal year.

Estimates
The Main Estimates, along with the Minister of Finance's Budget, reflect the Government's annual budget planning and resource allocation priorities.

Use the drop-down menu to view information relating to the Main Estimates for a particular year.





Supplementary Estimates
The Supplementary Estimates seek authority for revised spending levels that Parliament will be asked to approve in an Appropriation Act. In addition, Supplementary Estimates provide parliament with changes in the estimated expenditures to be made under the statutes previously passed by Parliament.

Use the drop-down menu to view information relating to the Supplementary Estimates for a particular year.


RPP
The annual Report on Plans and Priorities provides Departmental details on a strategic outcome and program activity basis. It contains information on priorities and planned results including links to related resource requirements over a three-year horizon.

Use the drop-down menu to view information relating to Reports on Plans and Priorities for a particular year.



DPR
The Departmental Performance Report is an individual departmental performance report covering the most recently completed fiscal year. Its fundamental purpose is to provide parliamentarians with a report on results and accomplishments as outlined in the corresponding Report on Plans and Priorities in order to assure them of the Government's sound stewardship of public resources.

Use the drop-down menu to view information relating to Departmental Performance Reports for a particular year.

Canada's Performance
Canada's Performance provides parliamentarians and Canadians with a whole of government perspective from which to view the plans, results and resources reported by individual federal departments and agencies in their spring planning and fall performance reports.

Use the drop-down menu to view information relating to Canada's Performance for a particular year.
Public Accounts

The Public Accounts of Canada summarize the financial transactions made by the Government of Canada during the year ended on March 31 as well as the financial position as at March 31.
