Government-wide chart of accounts—2018 to 2019 - Top of the page navigation
6.1 Introduction
As of fiscal year 2018 to 2019 and under the new Treasury Board Secretariat Policy on Results, most of the departments will be implementing the new Departmental Results Framework. This framework, which replaces the Program Alignment Architecture (PAA), consists of departmental core responsibilities and their related program inventory. These codes are used to reflect the resources allocated to the achievement of government objectives.
Example:
ZZZ00 - represents a core responsibility. The first three digits are capital letters and the last two digits are zeros.
ZZZ01 - this five digits alphanumeric code represents an individual program from the program inventory. The first 3 digits identify the core responsibility to which the program corresponds and the last two numbers is a combination between 01 and 99.
Please note that the following departments will still be using the old Program Alignment Architecture (PAA) in fiscal year 2018 to 2019 consisting in program codes (PROG):
- Royal Canadian Mounted Police
- Royal Canadian Mounted Police External Review Committee
- Civilian Review and Complaints Commission for the Royal Canadian Mounted Police
The format of these PROG is indentical to the core responsibility format.
