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.

Document Examination Support Centre - Phase IV
7408485 P006966001
This project, managed by International Organization for Migration (IOM), improves information collection and analysis of the use of fraudulent documents (e.g. passports and visas) and false identities and thereby helps to disrupt and minimize migrant smuggling in South East Asia. The previous phases of the project established a regional Document Examination Centre; created a regional network for best practices of the project; deployed the “Verifier Travel Document and Bearer” machine; and provided regular trends analysis to key stakeholders. This project will strengthen capacity for trends analysis; reinforce the sustainability of the Verifier TD&B system; improve interoperability with other critical databases and institutionalize networks within national and regional systems.
Beneficiary countries include: Brunei-Darussalam, Cambodia, Indonesia, Lao PDR, Malaysia, Myanmar, Philippines, Singapore, Thailand, Vietnam, Bangladesh, India, Maldives and Sri Lanka.
