Proactive Disclosure
Service Canada was launched in September 2005 as a joint initiative led by the Department of Human Resources and Skills Development Canada and the Department of Social Development Canada. We strive to be transparent and accountable in how we conduct business and this page presents links to information that supports these efforts.
Disclosure of Travel and Hospitality Expenses
On December 12, 2003, the government released the Guide for Ministers and Ministers of State and Guidelines for Ministers' Offices, which stipulate that all travel and hospitality expenses for Ministers, Ministers of State, Parliamentary Secretaries, and their exempt staff will be provided on institutional Web sites. In line with this commitment, the requirement also extends to senior level Government of Canada employees.
Reporting shall be on a quarterly basis, corresponding to pre-determined periods. Information must be posted on-line within thirty days of the end of each reporting period.

Disclosure of Contracts
On March 23, 2004, as part of the 2004 Budget, the government committed to "publicly disclose all contracts entered into by the Government of Canada for amounts over $10,000, with only very limited exceptions, such as national security. These new requirements will be phased in over time, starting with procurement contracts for goods and services."
Quarterly reports will be posted on-line within thirty days of the end of each fiscal quarter, which end on June 30, September 30, December 31, and March 31.
