Greening Government Operations

Overview

The Greening Government Operations supplementary table applies to departments and agencies bound by the Federal Sustainable Development Act, the Policy on Green Procurement, or the Policy Framework for Offsetting Greenhouse Gas Emissions from Major International Events.

Please note:

• RPP refers to Reports on Plans and Priorities and represents planned / expected results.

Green Procurement Reporting For Departments and Agencies Not Bound by the Federal Sustainable Development Act

---

Notes:

• 1 Alternatively, departments and agencies bound by the Policy on Green Procurement but not the Federal Sustainable Development Act can follow the approach required of Federal Sustainable Development Act departments for green procurement by setting and reporting on green procurement targets as specified in the "Green Procurement Targets" section in the above table.

Upcoming Internal Audits and Evaluations

All upcoming Internal Audits

The CGC's Internal Audit activity was in its first year of operation in 2010-2011. As development of the internal audit "universe" and the risk assessment process are still in progress, Internal Audit is operating with one-year Audit Plans at present. The following internal audits are currently planned or in progress.

All upcoming Evaluations

The CGC is in the process of establishing an Evaluation function reporting to the Chief Audit Executive. Within the implementation plan is an evaluation of the CGC’s Evaluation activity needs based on its classification as a “small department” as per Treasury Board’s 2009 Policy on Evaluation. During 2011 – 2012, a risk-based Evaluation Plan will be developed and posted on the CGC website.

Sources of Respendable Revenue

Respendable Revenue
($ thousands)

Program Activity	Forecast Revenue 2010–112	Planned Revenue 2011–123	Planned Revenue 2012–13	Planned Revenue 2013–14
Quality Assurance Program (RF)1	27,672	26,202	26,202	26,202

Total Respendable Revenue	39,532	37,183	37,183	37,183

¹ (RF) represents Revolving Fund activities.

² 2010-2011 forecasted revenue is based on the forecasted fee revenue generated from handling of 53.3 million tonnes of grain.

³ 2011-2012 planned revenue differs from Main Estimates because planned revenue includes projected revenue earned through fees of approximately $37.18 million based on forecasted fee revenues from handling 50.0 million tonnes of grain. Main Estimates reflects the authority limit of respendable revenue for 2011-2012 of $42.88 million. The CGC has authority to respend all but $0.12 million of its revenue earned which is reflected in 2011-2012 planned spending ($37.06 million).

² Planned capital spending for 2011-2012 reflects the CGC’s plans to acquire capital on a mission critical basis. Spending is being directed to support operations in order to maintain the successful delivery of our strategic outcome and program activities.

³ Planned capital spending shown in 2012-2013 and 2013-2014 is reflective of approved authorities to date only and is not reflective of total capital requirements. Amounts include consideration that the revolving fund will be responsible for supporting capital expenditures. This differs from amounts shown in our authority for capital which includes only appropriations.
