The Office of Audit and Evaluation (OAE) Departmental Evaluation Plan for PHAC describes the Program Evaluation Division's scheduled work for the five-year period from 2021-22 to 2025-26. The Plan was developed to meet PHAC's commitments under the Policy on Results (2016), which requires that each department prepare a five-year plan, annually updated. The projects included in this Evaluation Plan were selected to ensure full coverage of all Grant and Contribution spending over $5 million annually over a five-year period, prior commitments in Treasury Board Submissions, the information needs of program management, and program risks, and optimal use of resources. The Departmental Results Framework (DRF), program inventory, and performance information profiles developed by PHAC have formed the basis for this plan.
