1 For information on DFAIT’s organizational votes and or statutory expenditures, and complete program activity descriptions, please see the 2011-2012 Main Estimates publication, available at www.tbs-sct.gc.ca/est-pre/20102011/p2-eng.asp

2 Details on planned spending of each DFAIT program activity can be found in Section 2.

3 Minor modifications have been made to the performance indicators and corresponding targets. The department will continue to refine its Performance Management Framework and will submit changes to the Treasury Board Secretariat as part of the annual Management, Results and Resources Structure (MRRS) amendment process.

4 The difference between planned spending of $3,040.4 million (as disclosed in the Executive Summary, and in sections 1.4, 1.6 and 1.10) and the forecasted expenses of $3,051 million is due to the fact that planned spending is appropriations/cash based, while forecasted expenses are accrual based. The details of these differences are outlined in Note 5, which can be accessed by using the link provided.
