Section IV - Other Items of Interest

Sustainable Development and Strategic Environmental Assessment

Fisheries and Oceans Canada is committed to providing more specific information on how the Department supports sustainable development and contributes to the Federal Sustainable Development Strategy (FSDS).

DFO also commits to making environmental decision-making more transparent and to ensuring that the Government's environmental goals are taken into account when pursuing social and economic goals. The Department will review and update its processes and supporting tools for Strategic Environmental Assessments (SEAs) to align with FSDS and the recently revised guidelines under the Cabinet Directive on the Environmental Assessment of Policy, Plan and Program Proposals. To support this work, DFO is working with other federal departments under the leadership of the Canadian Environmental Assessment Agency (CEAA) to strengthen the application of SEA and improve reporting on summary information regarding the results of SEAs.

For complete details on the Federal Sustainable Development Strategy, visit http://www.ec.gc.ca/dd-sd/default.asp?lang=En&n=E19EE696-1.

Information on federal Strategic Environmental Assessment can be found on the Canadian Environmental Assessment Agency website (http://www.ceaa.gc.ca/default.asp?lang=En&n=A4C57835-1).
