This table identifies all sources of revenue generated, excluding appropriation. Respendable revenues represent funds generated through fees and contracts for services rendered by the Canadian Grain Commission. These revenues are used to offset a portion of the costs of providing these services.
Main Estimates and total authorities represent the authority limit of respendable revenue which is different than planned revenue. Planned revenue reflects respendable revenue based on projected grain volumes of 50 million tonnes.
Actual respendable revenue is based on Public Accounts. These amounts are determined using the modified cash basis of accounting.

1a Commencing in 2010-11, the amounts reported under ‘Full Cost’ are the actual full costs of the Canadian Grain Commission associated with providing the activity. These costs are based on the costing methodology used in Canadian Grain Commission's current User Fee Consultations. In prior years Canadian Grain Commission User Fees Reporting, ‘Full Cost’ excluded any costs that were funded by ad-hoc appropriations. This affects comparability of Canadian Grain Commission User Fees Reporting between years. Going forward, full costs will either be funded by increased user fees or a combination of user fees and appropriations depending on the outcome of our User Fees Consultations.
1b Forecasted revenue is based on projected grain volumes of 50 million tonnes and existing 2010-11 fee levels.
1c Actual revenue is based on actual 2010-11 grain volumes of 57.7 million tonnes and existing 2010-11 fee levels.
1d The amounts reported under ‘Estimated Full Cost’ are the estimated full costs based on approved funding as reported in the RPP for 2011-12. For period 2012-13 and beyond, costs are not reflective of the full costs of providing the activity for the planning years, but are limited to the funding that has been approved to date.

External Audits: (Note: These refer to other external audits conducted by the Public Service Commission of Canada or the Office of the Commissioner of Official Languages) |
An external audit was conducted by the Public Service Commission (PSC) titled "Audit of Canadian Grain Commission". The objectives of the audit were to determine whether the Canadian Grain Commission had an appropriate framework, systems and practices in place to manage its appointment activities and to determine whether appointments and appointment processes complied with the Public Service Employment Act (PSEA), the PSC Appointment Framework, including the appointment policy and the Appointment Delegation and Accountability Instrument signed with the PSC, the policies governing the organization and other governing authorities. The audit examined activities pertaining to the Staffing Management Accountability Framework for the period April 1, 2008 to March 31, 2010. The audit also examined a representative sample of appointments for the period April 1, 2008 to November 30, 2009 to determine compliance with PSEA requirements. The audit made four recommendations. The Canadian Grain Commission accepted the audit findings and developed an action plan to address the issues raised in the audit report. The PSC will monitor the Canadian Grain Commission's follow-up action to the audit recommendations through its regular monitoring activities, including the annual Departmental Staffing Accountability Report.

Note: During 2009-10, the Canadian Grain Commission hired a Chief Audit Executive (CAE) responsible for planning and conducting evaluations in addition to internal audit. The Canadian Grain Commission priority for 2010-2011 was to implement a fully operational internal audit function. Development of the Program Evaluation activity is now planned for 2011-2012.
