Minerals and Metals Sector (MMS) Science and Technology (S&T) Evaluation
A June 2009 evaluation examined the science and technology (S&T) programs of the Material Technology Laboratory (MTL) and the Mineral and Mining Science Laboratories (MMSL) within the Minerals and Metals Sector of NRCan. The evaluation found that the S&T activities of the laboratories were aligned with federal and NRCan priorities. The research projects undertaken by the laboratories produced sound scientific knowledge and innovative technologies, and contributed significantly to applied S&T in the sector. Many of these projects generated good quality and high-impact peer-reviewed publications and conference presentations. Moreover, the laboratories were successful in transferring their S&T knowledge, expert advice, and technologies to industry and other stakeholders. The evaluation noted that the two laboratories face numerous challenges including: budgetary pressures; the need for capital investment; retirements and MTL’s relocation to Hamilton in 2010.
Built Environment Evaluation
A July 2009 evaluation of the Build Environment Sub-sub Activity found that its objectives and activities were in line with federal and NRCan priorities regarding the environment including the federal strategy to cut greenhouse gas emissions to address climate change. The evaluation concluded that the federal government is a key contributor to innovation in the Built Environment area. The Sub-sub Activity has led to the creation of research and development work which would not have occurred otherwise. The evaluation also found that the Sub-sub Activity was delivered in a cost-effective manner. However, it is difficult to determine the long-term impact of the Built Environment’s work.
Earth Sciences Sector Economic Opportunities Evaluation
A July 2009 evaluation examined the Earth Sciences Sector’s Economic Opportunities Sub-Activity. The objective of this Sub-activity was to create new economic opportunities through the provision of geoscience information for mineral and energy exploration. The Sub-activity included five programs: Targeted Geoscience Initiative-3; Northern Resources Development; Secure
Canadian Energy Supply Geoscience; for Ocean Management and Gas Hydrates Fuel for the Future? The evaluation confirmed that the programs produced numerous new and innovative geoscience products, many of which would not have been produced in the absence of the Programs. Despite some delays and gaps, the programs address the ongoing needs of federal and provincial governments, the
private sector, communities and NGOs for up-to-date geoscience information to help stimulate exploration of minerals and hydrocarbons, secure affordable energy and resolve conflicting uses of the natural environment. There has been very close collaboration with partners and stakeholders in all of the programs.
Canada’s Submission to the Commission on the Limits of the Continental Shelf Under the United Nations Convention on the Law of the Sea (The “Continental Shelf Program”)
The United Nations Convention on the Law of the Sea provides that, where a State intends to make a submission to the United Nations Commission on the Limits of the Continental Shelf to delineate the outer edge of its continental shelf beyond 200 nautical miles, it must do so within 10 years of becoming a Party to the Convention. Canada’s deadline for providing its submission is December, 2013. Fisheries and Oceans (DFO) and Natural Resources Canada are responsible for collecting the data required to assess and substantiate the extent of Canada’s continental shelf. This information will be used by the Department of Foreign Affairs and International Trade to develop Canada’s submission. An interdepartmental evaluation on the Continental Shelf Program, led by DFO, was completed in December 2009. The evaluation confirmed that the preparation phase of the Program has been completed and data collection is proceeding according to plan and within budget. The evaluation noted that the Program is managing significant technical, financial and human resources risks.

Comments: Public Safety Canada undertook the development of a rolling five-year risk-based evaluation plan in 2009-10. The Public Safety Canada Departmental Evaluation Plan for 2010-11 to 2014-15 was completed and provided to the Treasury Board of Canada Secretariat in April 2010. |
[1] A decision was made to cancel these proposed evaluation engagements as part of the risk-based evaluation planning exercise. The projects and programs of these proposed engagements have either terminated, or the activities are part of a larger program and it is not possible to disassociate them to report on their relevance and performance.

The following are the main Internal Audit conclusions.
Implementation of Service Transformation: Staffing and Assessment Services had many challenges in transforming its business processes for its new cost recovery mandate. It was found that management had put in most elements of a sound structure to deliver services efficiently and effectively and to assess and manage its risks in this dynamic environment.
Cyclical Audit, Cycle 2: Revenue: Invoicing for Public Service Commission (PSC) services involves many stakeholders, especially with the move towards more services being cost recovered. The PSC had to develop new billing systems and change internal processes. Although basic financial management and reporting controls were found to be in place, more work was needed on the PSC’s fee structure and costing model, management reports and documentation of procedures.
Budgeting: This audit found that the PSC has established a budgeting process that enables both the timely development of annual budgets and the monitoring of budget performance. Expertise, systems and tools are in place. Some budget processes need improvement, such that funds can be reallocated more quickly. A stronger challenge role by the corporate management group is also needed.
The Internal Audit Directorate made some recommendations for improvement relating to the above projects, and management provided sound action plans to address them all.

PSC-led Pools | 1.3.0 | Formative Evaluation | Completed | May 2010 |
Post-Secondary Recruitment Program | 1.3.0 | Formative Evaluation | Completed | April 2010 |
The Executive Management Committee (EMC) of the PSC approved the evaluation report of the Post-Secondary Recruitment Program (PSR). One of the major conclusions is that the PSR is perceived to be supporting staffing in the public service by attracting candidates who are normatively representative of the Canadian population and providing them with an avenue of access to jobs in the federal public service. However, it continues to be under-utilized due to limited awareness and knowledge of the program and a perceived difference between the interests and preferences of hiring managers and the program design. Cost effectiveness could be improved through testing and assessment alterations.
The EMC also approved the evaluation report of the PSC-led Pools. One of the major conclusions is that PSC-led Pools are relevant and consistent with government and PSC policies and priorities. PSC-led Pools can work, under the right circumstances, when they are flexible and the needs of clients are appropriately identified and targeted. Consequently, the PSC should anticipate and map out client needs through ongoing communications and environmental scanning and factor in high-demand regions and high-volume job classifications. Another finding is that they do not have consistently clearly defined goals and objectives related to service delivery, business processes, needs assessment and client satisfaction. Therefore, the PSC should develop uniform service-delivery processes and standards to address service-related issues promptly and effectively. A more consistent, accountable and appropriate management structure is recommended to support ongoing stability and improvement. For this reason, the PSC should identify a lead and clarify roles and responsibilities related to PSC-led Pools. Overall, there is inherent risk in PSC-led Pools where there is no assurance that costs will be recovered. Costing strategies should be reviewed to help mitigate these risks.

Given the scope of the NBC’s mandate and that its structure does not provide for internal auditing, management monitors operations through rigorous follow-up and knowledge of the various operations in each unit.
