At the outset of 2012-13, Fisheries and Oceans Canada's planned spending was $1,665.8 million. Through the Main Estimates and Supplementary Estimates, the Department was allocated total authorities of $1,935.3 million, whereas the actual expenditures were $1,777.1 million, resulting in a variance of $158.2 million.

The $269.5 million increase from planned spending to total authorities is mainly due to incremental funding for the renewal of the Pacific Integrated Commercial Fisheries Initiative, Atlantic Integrated Commercial Fisheries Initiative, Health of the Oceans horizontal initiative, and funding to protect aquatic wildlife species at risk.

New funding also includes investments in offshore science vessels, vessel life extensions, and the Mid-life Modernization Program for the Canadian Coast Guard, as well as repairs at the Digby Fishermen's Wharf in Nova Scotia.

The difference of $158.2 million between total authorities and actual spending is mainly the result of timeline changes in the completion of projects, which caused funding to be carried forward to the next fiscal year.
