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.

Market research into the training needs for high-voltage battery systems
1001754
Several Canadian underground mines have become world leaders in the roll-out of battery electric vehicles (BEVs) for drilling, loading and hauling operations in recent years. However, the adoption of new low-carbon technology has not been without challenges, and ensuring the supply of a highly trained workforce will help accelerate the uptake of heavy-duty BEVs in Canada and abroad. This market analysis project will identify the opportunities for addressing new training needs for high-voltage battery systems in the mining sector.

ESTABLISHING INTERNATIONAL GUIDANCE FOR INDOOR ENVIRONMENTAL CONDITIONS FOR HEALTHY AGING IN PLACE
1001877
The older population is experiencing growth and a considerable proportion of them live in their homes and express preference to age in place. The main guidance for buildings, such as building codes or indoor environmental quality standards, is based on research with young or working-age adults and not necessarily support health and well-being for seniors. On a specific approach, environmental noise directly affects sleep quality when the building envelope system is not properly designed, which consequently have negative effects on PAGE 4 health. The degree of disturbance caused by noise varies over age and has not been well investigated. This project will investigate the effects of noise in sleep quality of older adults aiming to identify suitable interior acoustic conditions to support health and well-being for adults as they age. The study includes a literature review to establish knowledge gaps and support the decision making in the development of the subsequent activities; a survey of the general population to find out their needs and wants with respect to their physical environment and a set of sleep studies, to investigate the effects of different noise conditions in the quality of sleep of aging adults. The study will be developed collaboratively between the NRC and AIST and its outcomes will provide bases for the development of guidelines for suitable interior acoustic conditions to support health and well-being for adults as they age
