Public Works and Government Services Canada Reports

This site provides access to the department's Reports on Plans and Priorities and Departmental Performance Reports tabled in Parliament, as well as related supplementary information. It also provides access to the department's Quarterly Financial Reports.

Report on Plans and Priorities (RPP)

PWGSC's Report on Plans and Priorities is tabled in Parliament by the President of the Treasury Board, normally every Spring. The RPP provides information on performance expectations and related resource requirements over a three-year period. It outlines how we will achieve key priorities such as the Parliamentary Precinct projects, Sustainable Development, Alternative Service Delivery and Government On-Line.

In this section you will be able to research RPPs dating back to 2000.

Departmental Performance Report (DPR)

The Department Performance Report is PWGSC's key instrument of accountability. The DPR acts as PWGSC's annual report card that informs Parliamentarians and Canadians whether the department has fulfilled the expectations outlined in its Report on Plans and Priorities.

Tabled every fall by the President of the Treasury Board, the DPR is a coherent and balanced view of performance. It highlights successes and identifies areas requiring improvement. The DPR is also designed to account for the resources used in fulfilling the department's commitments as well as explain the overall benefits for taxpayers.

In this section you will be able to research DPRs dating back to 2000.

Quarterly Financial Report (QFR)

Pursuant to section 65.1 of the Financial Administration Act and following guidelines prescribed by Treasury Board Accounting Standard 1.3, a Quarterly Financial Report (QFR) must be prepared for the first three quarters of each fiscal year, starting on April 1, 2011.

As part of transparency and accountability initiatives, the QFR presents timely financial information to Parliamentarians and by extension to Canadians, on how the department delivers its programs and services.

The QFR is prepared using an expenditure basis of accounting also known as modified-cash accounting. The accompanying Statement of Authorities includes the department's spending authorities granted by Parliament as at the reporting date and those used by the department consistent with the Part I and II - Main Estimates and Supplementary Estimates as applicable. The QFR is not audited and is not tabled before Parliament.

In this section you will also find Supplementary Data on Budget 2012 Implementation.
