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.

Develop and Validate an Autonomous Electrical Transmission Line Tower Inspection Hardware and Software System
991396
The project involves the development and validation of an autonomous electrical transmission line tower inspection hardware and software system. Inspections using drone technology are more efficient than traditional manual methods and take workers out of harm's way. The experience and technology requirements of manual drone inspections are outside the area of expertise of many firms and some older inspectors, so SEM is working towards a semi to fully automated drone inspection solution for transmission towers. Its goal is to make drone technology and the information it captures more accessible by automating as much of the data capture, processing, and distribution pipeline as possible.
