Proactive Disclosure - CSEC

On December 12, 2003, the Prime Minister announced the mandatory publication on departmental Web sites of travel and hospitality expenses for selected government officials; contracts entered into by the Government of Canada for amounts over $10,000 (with only limited exceptions such as national security); and the reclassification of positions.

For national security reasons, the Communications Security Establishment Canada (CSEC) is exempt from the proactive disclosure of financial and human resources-related information. This exemption extends to the disclosure of travel and hospitality expenses, contracts entered into by CSEC, the reclassification of positions, and grants and contributions.
