The future-oriented financial highlights presented within this Report on Plans and Priorities are intended to serve as a general overview of the Department of Fisheries and Oceans financial position and operations. These future-oriented financial highlights are prepared on an accrual basis to strengthen accountability and improve transparency and financial management.

Reporting of financial authorities which is primarily based on cash flow requirements does not reflect reporting of future-oriented financial results which is on an accrual basis. The two types of reporting are reconciled in Fisheries and Oceans Canada's Future-Oriented Consolidated Financial Statements that can be found on the department's Website.

For more detailed information, see the Department's future-oriented financial statements on the Fisheries and Oceans Canada website (http://www.dfo-mpo.gc.ca/rpp/2012-13/fin-eng.htm).
