ENDNOTES

[1] The Department of National Defence (DND) and the Canadian Forces (CF) and the organizations and agencies that make up the full Defence portfolio are collectively referred to as Defence

[5] Notes on Full Time Equivalents:

  • Unless otherwise indicated, Military FTEs (Full Time Equivalents) represent Vote 1 and Vote 5 Regular Forces and include Class "C" Primary Reserve Forces.
  • Military FTEs are derived from a representative financial formula, as there is not a consistent 1:1 relationship between FTEs and program activities.
  • Attribution of military personnel to Program Activity is calculated centrally by a compilation of Unit/Command/Departmental personnel data to derive Corporate percentage attribution factors that represent strength distribution as of 31 Mar 2011. This method is consistent with the attribution factors utilized in preparation of the Report on Plans and Priorities. The military figures for each PAA element are not wholly aligned to the associated Level One OPI, as other Level Ones may perform Sub-Activities in support of other Activities.
  • Civilian workforce is planned through a Salary Wage Envelope (SWE).
  • Please note that the military and civilian FTE numbers in this DPR are not consistent 1:1 with the FTE numbers used for the allocation of the financial resources approved for the 2009-10 Annual Reference Level Update (ARLU).
  • Civilian workforce planned FTEs include forecasted growth projections and are subject to final budgetary approval.
  • Civilian FTEs include National Defence and Defence portfolio organizations.
  • Reprioritization of operational and/or management initiatives within the fiscal year may result in the reallocation of personnel to other program activities, as required.
  • Due to the methodology used to derive the HR attribution across the PAA, the overall totals for the HR financial data will not be an exact match with the financial tables. Where discrepancies occur, the financial tables take precedence.

[6] Performance Status Legend:

  • Exceeded: More than 100 per cent of the expected level of performance (as evidenced by the indicator and target or planned activities and outputs) for the expected result identified in the corresponding RPP was achieved during the fiscal year.
  • Met All: 100 per cent of the expected level of performance (as evidenced by the indicator and target or planned activities and expected outputs) for the expected result identified in the corresponding RPP was achieved during the fiscal year.
  • Mostly Met: 80 to 99 per cent of the expected level of performance (as evidenced by the indicator and target or planned activities and expected outputs) for the expected result identified in the corresponding RPP was achieved during the fiscal year.
  • Somewhat Met: 60 to 79 per cent of the expected level of performance (as evidenced by the indicator and target or planned activities and outputs) for the expected result identified in the corresponding RPP was achieved during the fiscal year.
  • Not Met: Less than 60 per cent of the expected level of performance (as evidenced by the indicator and target or planned activities and outputs) for the expected result identified in the corresponding RPP was achieved during the fiscal year.

[8] The Prime Minister's expression "web of rules" has come to symbolise what happens when rules become a barrier to good government. In government, this happens when our response to a crisis is to pile on more rules - rules that become difficult to follow and slow things down, rules that blur accountabilities, and in the end, rules that encourage people to stop using their judgement.
