Financial Table 2. Comparison of Total Planned Spending to Actual Spending

Our actual spending in 2002-2003 was greater than our planned spending because we carried forward unspent parliamentary appropriations from the previous year. In addition, our actual spending included funding for performance measurement and modern comptrollership projects that was approved after the submission of our main estimates (planned spending), as well as compensation for collective agreements that were signed in 2002-2003.

Financial Table 3. Historical Comparison of Total Planned Spending to Actual Spending

Our spending has increased over the past three years primarily because of the increased funding we received to carry out our Environment and Sustainable Development Indicators initiative.

Financial Table 4. Non-Respendable Revenues

Our non-respendable revenues reflect the revenue generated through the sale of our publications. This revenue has declined over the past three years primarily because we also make these publications accessible on our Web site. The significant decrease in 2002-2003 reflects the fact that only one new publication (the National Brownfield Redevelopment Strategy) was released in during the year.
