Figure 6 Future-oriented gross expenses, by Program Activity, 2012-13

[text version]

Statistics Canada projects $667.7 million in expenditures for 2012-13, a decrease of $271.9 million from 2011-12 projections. The main reason for this decrease is that 2011-12 was the peak year for the 2011 Census of Population, the National Household Survey, and the 2011 Census of Agriculture; spending on the census programs begins to wind down in 2012-13. Forecast gross expenditures for 2012-13 are broken down by Program Activity as follows: Economic Statistics, $244.6 million, or 36.7%; Social Statistics, $206.5 million, or 30.9%; Census, Demography and Aboriginal Statistics, $104.9 million, or 15.7%; and Internal Services, $111.7 million, or 16.7%.
