Notes

[1] Original allocations for Transfer Payment Programs; these do not reflect transfers out.

[2] Type is defined as follows: previously committed to—committed to in the first or second fiscal year prior to the subject year of the report; ongoing—committed to at least three fiscal years prior to the subject year of the report; and new—newly committed to in the reporting year of the Report on Plans and Priorities.

[3] Planned Spending beyond 2013-14 does not reflect funding for future public infrastructure programming as financial details are not yet available.

[4] Number of full-time equivalents to be determined, depending on the status of ongoing operational funding and on the elements of future public infrastructure programming.

[5] Totals may not add due to rounding.

[6] There is no planned spending for this Program beyond 2012-13. It is included in this table only to document Actual Spending for 2010-11 and 2011-12, and Forecast Spending for 2012-13.

[7] There is no Planned Spending for the timely, targeted and temporary stimulus programs under this Strategic Outcome as they were completed prior to 2012-13. They are included in this table only to document Actual Spending for 2010-11 and 2011-12.

[8] These amounts include operating funding for core administration and program delivery. Planned Spending for 2014-15 and 2015-16 only reflects opening balances. As Infrastructure Canada does not have a permanent source of operating budget, the amounts for 2014-15 and 2015-16 will be increased once the operating budgets for these years are approved by Treasury Board.

[9] Internal Services are groups of related activities and resources that are supportive of, but not associated to corporate obligations of an organization. As such, the Internal Services Program level is a stand-alone element that does not align to a particular departmental Strategic Outcome or any specific Government of Canada Outcome area.

[10] These amounts also include spending related to the Shared Information Management System for Infrastructure. In the future, spending related to the Shared Information Management System for Infrastructure will be reported against the specific infrastructure programs that the technology directly supports.

[11] Legislation enacting permanent funding for the Gas Tax Fund received Royal Assent on December 15, 2011.

[12] As a result of the 2010 Strategic Review, Infrastructure Canada is saving $5.4 million on administration by improving the delivery of the BCF-CC. These funds are available for other Government of Canada priorities. No announced infrastructure projects have been cancelled or otherwise affected as a result of these funding reductions.

[13] As a result of the 2010 Strategic Review, Infrastructure Canada is saving $4.9 million on administration by improving the delivery of the BCF-MIC.

[14] Prior to fiscal year 2013-14, $132.58 million has been reallocated from Infrastructure Canada to other departments, with the balance of $37.4 million included in the 2013-14 Main Estimates. Detailed information on the transfers and amounts can be found in the Supplementary Information Tables of the 2013-14 Report on Plans and Priorities.

[16] Of the $4.3 billion originally allocated to the CSIF, $50 million was transferred to the Parks Canada Agency to support a high priority infrastructure project. These funds were reallocated through Estimates processes prior to 2013-14. In addition, $12.8 million was also removed from the CSIF funding envelope through various government-wide reduction and reallocation exercises prior to the 2010 Strategic Review.

[17] Under the 2010 Strategic Review process, $23 million in unallocated funds from MRIF was reallocated to other government priorities. These funds were removed from departmental reference levels through Estimates processes prior to 2013-14. No infrastructure projects have been cancelled or otherwise affected as result of this reallocation.
