  • Sources of Respendable and Non-Respendable Revenue

Other Items of Interest

Travel, Hospitality and Conference Fees Budget restrictions as announced in the 2009 Federal Budget.

Notwithstanding that the Service (like other organizations directly supporting the judiciary) received an exemption from the government spending restriction on travel, hospitality and conferences, it was decided to respect the spending restrictions during this difficult economic period and the Service reduced its overall expenditures in these areas by 16% as compared to their 2008 2009 level.


Footnotes


1 Commencing in the 2009-2010 Estimates cycle, the resources for the Program Activity “Internal Service” is displayed separately from other program activities; Internal Services is no longer distributed among the remaining program activities, as was the case in previous Main Estimates. This has affected the comparability of spending and FTE information by Program Activity between fiscal years.

2 Two significant changes in actual spending between 2009-2010 and 2008-2009 are notable:
1) $2.8M was realigned from internal services to judicial services for the translation function;
2) The Service spent $1.6M in 2008-2009 to consolidate certain of their operations from 90 Elgin to 90 Sparks.
