Prime Minister Stephen Harper & Her Excellency, the Right Honourable Michaëlle Jean

Federal Accountability Act Becomes Law

Canada's New Government followed through on a key promise today by delivering on its top priority – passing the Federal Accountability Act – as Her Excellency, the Right Honourable Michaëlle Jean, Governor General of Canada, granted Royal Assent to the Act in the Senate today. [more...]

Turning a New Leaf - Federal Accountability Act and Action Plan

On April 11, 2006, the Government of Canada introduced the Federal Accountability Act and Action Plan to make government more accountable.

The Government of Canada delivered on this commitment by passing the Federal Accountability Act, which was granted Royal Assent on December 12, 2006.

Through the Federal Accountability Act and Action Plan, the Government of Canada has brought forward specific measures to help strengthen accountability and increase transparency and oversight in government operations. The comprehensive Action Plan includes the Federal Accountability Act as well as supporting policy and other non-legislative measures..

As is common for complex legislation, different sections of the Act will come into force at different times. Some came into force at Royal Assent, some will come into force on specific dates and others will come into force at dates to be set out by Order-in-Council.


NOTE: An amendment to change the French name of the Federal Accountability Act to "Loi fédérale sur la responsabilité" was passed by the House of Commons Legislative Committee on Bill C-2, on June 14, 2006. Consequently, the new French name of the Act will appear in all documents published on this site after June 14. Documents published prior to this date will remain unchanged.
