Accountability and TransparencyPublic Works and Government Services Canada continuously strives to be transparent and accountable in how it does business. Here you will find links to detailed departmental information on our operations, including Sponsorship, Proactive Disclosure, Advertising, Transparent Contracting and our Internal Audit and Review activities. Our goals are to improve how we manage, and to operate effectively and efficiently, and with integrity. We'll continue to post information on the steps we're taking to meet these goals on this section of our Web site. On May 9, 2006, the Commissioner of Official Languages published her 2005-2006 annual report. The report, entitled Official Languages in Canada: Taking on the New Challenge, contains a report card on our Department's overall performance on official languages. AccountabilityOn April 11, 2006, the government introduced the Federal Accountability Act and its associated Action Plan in the House of Commons. This omnibus legislation is a central part of the government’s agenda, as outlined in the Speech from the Throne. The Federal Accountability Act and the Action Plan will bring forward specific measures to help strengthen accountability and increase transparency and oversight in government operations. PWGSC will play a special role in the implementation of the Act and the Action Plan in the areas of procurement, advertising and public opinion research. As part of the government's commitment to transparency and accountability, PWGSC has embarked on a procurement transformation initiative to simplify federal purchasing.
