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.

E!22895 - Free Chlorine Sensors- Development of Free Chlorine Sensors for Pool Water

Agreement Number:

1033285

Duration: from Jun 2, 2025 to Oct 29, 2026
Description:

As part of the international consortium project “E!22895 - Free Chlorine Sensors- Development of Free Chlorine Sensors for Pool Water” this project will focus on developing robust sensors for real-time measurement of free-chlorine levels in pool water. Part of Calumix’s technology has been shown to respond to changes in free chlorine concentrations in water at the laboratory scale. A lot more work is required to optimise these materials and fully characterise performance, with the goal of developing a robust sensor technology that could be deployed in automated pool chemistry management systems.
