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.

Tools & Programming: Strengthen UN Security Council Resolution1540 & the Chemical Weapons Convention
7394685 P006555001
This Project is composed of three separate Project activities (ASI + CW + STEP):
• to further develop the UNSCR 1540 Assistance Support Initiative (ASI) tool to establish an online catalogue of all UNSCR 1540 beneficiary-donor opportunities that will refine, populate and update the online 1540 Committee Catalogue Website with “match-making” beneficiary-donor opportunities, making it more robust, sustainable and useable with an extended language translation capability; ASI Phase 2 will explore synchronization with other databases, including those of the BTWC, the CWC and the IAEA to extend match-making opportunities and further enhance UNSCR 1540 implementation;
• to develop a Chemical Weapons (CW) Legal Frameworks Compendium Tool that will deliver a set of potential international standards for securing CW-related materials and facilities and analyse the indices, measures and standards to identify vulnerabilities in states and sectors with accompanying recommendations to address these vulnerabilities; and
• to implement a Security and Trade Efficiency Platform (STEP) program in the Southeast Asia region to enhance efforts to prevent illicit trafficking of strategic goods through Asian ports. A comprehensive evaluation of WMD proliferation vulnerabilities for countries in the ASEAN region will be undertaken and one country in the region will be selected and engaged with a view to identifying WMD-related supply chain security gaps found in regulatory and operational processes, as well as on-the-ground outreach to better understand and rectify operational weak points in the supply chain process that could be used to divert or traffic dual-use WMD materials in the selected country and eventually in the Southeast Asia region.
