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.

For-profit organization

Agreement:

Development of Soluble Antibiofilm High Oxidation State Silvers

Agreement Number:

1029193

Duration: from Apr 1, 2025 to Mar 31, 2026
Description:

This project will ensure that soluble microbicidal diperiodatoargentates developed at ILC can be made consistently with a scalable manufacturing method. The compounds will be characterized for antimicrobial activity, stability, and compatibility. The most promising compounds will be further developed towards commercialization, including formulation work, finalizing/scaling up the manufacturing process, and performing proof-of-concept/pilot testing of the materials for specific applications, such as sprays, flushes, dips or wipes in medical, industrial, and agricultural settings. The results of the work will be used to promote collaborations with other companies and support registration of final products with appropriate regulatory agencies.
