The future-oriented financial highlights presented here for the first time are intended to serve as a general overview of CICS financial operations. Next year, CICS will present the full set of future-oriented financial statements. This condensed statement of operations is prepared on an accrual basis to strengthen accountability and improve transparency and financial management. Total projected expenses differ from planned spending presented earlier in this document as projected expenses include accruals and services received without charge from other Government department.
(The complete future-oriented financial statement can be found on CICS’s website at: http://www.scics.gc.ca/english/view.asp?ccid=107)

The planned increase of expenses for 2011-12 reflects the fact that CICS has no control over the number of intergovernmental conferences it will be asked to serve in any given year nor the location or costs of such meetings. The demand for CICS services varies from year to year depending largely on the agendas and priorities of federal, provincial and territorial governments. A number of conferences are planned up to a year in advance, others several months in advance and in a few instances requests arrive quite unexpectedly at the last minute. CICS is funded and resourced to serve approximately 110 to 120 conferences a year.
