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.

Duration: from Nov 8, 2018 to Oct 31, 2019
Description:

October 2018 – On September 28, 2018, a magnitude 7.5 earthquake struck Sulawesi, Indonesia. Following the earthquake, a tsunami hit the regions of Palu, Donggala and Sigi.

With GAC’s support, CARE Canada is addressing urgent humanitarian needs of up to 15,500 vulnerable people (3,100 households) affected by the earthquakes and tsunami in the Donggala region, Central Sulawesi, Indonesia. Project activities include: (1) providing hygiene awareness sessions and distributing gender- sensitive hygiene kits; (2) repairing or constructing communal latrine facilities; (3) providing emergency shelter and non-food items to disaster-affected households; and (4) providing cash-for-work activities and unconditional funding grants.

Description:

October 2018 – On September 28, 2018, a magnitude 7.5 earthquake struck Sulawesi, Indonesia. Following the earthquake, a tsunami hit the regions of Palu, Donggala and Sigi. The disasters caused widespread flooding and devastation in central Sulawesi, damaging basic services such as water and health services, and destroying homes and urban infrastructure.
