This bar graph illustrates the spending trend for Secretariat program expenditures (Vote 1) related to actual spending, forecast spending and planned spending, including the Employee Benefit Plans. Financial figures are presented in dollars along the y axis, increasing by $50 million increments up to $350 million. These are graphed against fiscal years from 2011–12 to 2016–17 on the x axis.
The graph demonstrates that actual spending decreased from 2011–12 ($311,639,214) to 2012–13 ($261,653,207). The graph also demonstrates that total spending is forecasted to decrease from 2012–13 to 2013–14 ($258,673,910, which includes sunset programs). Finally, the graph demonstrates that planned spending is expected to decrease each year from 2014–15 to 2016–17. For the next three fiscal years, planned spending including sunset programs is as follows: $258,728,906 for 2014–15; $238,207,418 for 2015–16; and $233,871,641 for 2016–17.
