Grants and Contributions
About this information
In June 2016, as part of the Open Government Action Plan, the Treasury Board of Canada Secretariat (TBS) committed to increasing the transparency and usefulness of grants and contribution data and subsequently launched the Guidelines on the Reporting of Grants and Contributions Awards, effective April 1, 2018.
The rules and principles governing government grants and contributions are outlined in the Treasury Board Policy on Transfer Payments. Transfer payments are transfers of money, goods, services or assets made from an appropriation to individuals, organizations or other levels of government, without the federal government directly receiving goods or services in return, but which may require the recipient to provide a report or other information subsequent to receiving payment. These expenditures are reported in the Public Accounts of Canada. The major types of transfer payments are grants, contributions and \'other transfer payments\'.
Included in this category, but not to be reported under proactive disclosure of awards, are (1) transfers to other levels of government such as Equalization payments as well as Canada Health and Social Transfer payments. (2) Grants and contributions reallocated or otherwise redistributed by the recipient to third parties; and (3) information that would normally be withheld under the Access to Information Act and the Privacy Act.

It does so by facilitating access to childcare services and private sector employers, thus allowing refugee caregivers to pursue training and employment opportunities. Project activities include: (1) advocating with private sector and government partners to include childcare facilities within companies, promoting workplace support for refugee caregivers; (2) supporting the identification of new childcare centers in collaboration with private sector partners and local civil society organizations; (3) providing technical assistance for the design and establishment of childcare facilities; (4) delivering training sessions for childcare providers; (5) monitoring and evaluating the effectiveness of the childcare model in meeting the needs of refugee families; and (6) integrating the expertise of local civil society organizations in developing and promoting childcare models that respond to the needs of refugee families. The project benefits 2,500 refugee women caregivers taking part in the UN Refugee Agency’s Local Integration Program.
