Section V: Summary of Departmental Performance
The purpose of this section is to provide an overall report card on
departmental performance based on program performance indicators and the
recommendations of Parliamentary committees. In a difficult year of transition,
the department met or exceeded two-thirds of the objectives set for 2003-2004.
Progress and Performance against Report on Plans and
Priorities Commitments
In the 2003-2004 Report on Plans and Priorities, the former HRDC set a series
of objectives and Key Performance Indicators to monitor performance.
The following charts report results against objectives for the programs of
HRDC and the new HRSDC (results of all other HRDC programs can be found in the
Social Development Canada Departmental Performance Report). The department is
reporting on the existing set of program indicators for this report, but a
substantive review of program indicators will take place over the coming year.
For those Key Performance Indicators where objectives were not met, a page
number is provided referring the reader to a discussion of results.
