Planned spending

Figure 1: Departmental Spending Trend

See long text description of Figure 1.

*Statutory spending includes some operating expenses, and the federal Gas Tax Fund program which became permanent in 2014–15. In 2016–17, the Statutory amount also includes $30,155,357 in Voted spending flowed to provinces and territories through the federal Gas Tax Fund, as legacy funding was transferred from sunsetting programs to the federal Gas Tax Fund. The transfer of legacy funding (Voted spending) through the federal Gas Tax Fund ensured that funds were directed towards municipal infrastructure priorities in the near term.

The planned human resources levels from 2015–16 will continue to increase until 2018–19. A decline is expected in 2019–20 as the funding associated with some sunsetting programs will end (this includes the programs under the New Building Canada Fund and the New Champlain Bridge Corridor project).

Future-Oriented Condensed Statement of Operations

The Future-Oriented Condensed Statement of Operations provides a general overview of the Infrastructure Canada's operations. The forecast of financial information on expenses and revenues is prepared on an accrual accounting basis to strengthen accountability and to improve transparency and financial management.

Because the Future-Oriented Condensed Statement of Operations is prepared on an accrual accounting basis, and the forecast and planned spending amounts presented in other sections of the Departmental Plan are prepared on an expenditure basis, amounts may differ.

A more detailed Future-Oriented Statement of Operations and associated notes, including a reconciliation of the net cost of operations to the requested authorities, are available on the Infrastructure Canada website.^{Endnote iii}
