At the end of each fiscal year, government-wide financial information is published in the Public Accounts. This dataset presents the total of international travel expenditures incurred by ministers, parliamentary secretaries, and minister's staff where the travel was required for departmental operational or program purposes only. These expenditures are charged to a special fund centre, created from existing reference levels, within the minister`s department or agency and not charged to the minister's office budget.
This dataset is from the Public Accounts of Canada and is not the official record of information. The official version of records can be found on the Receiver General website for the most recent fiscal year and the Library and Archives website for historical years.
