WRITTEN QUESTION 8-17(5): HUMAN RESOURCE FUNDING TRANSFERS AND REALLOCATIONS

Thank you, Mr. Speaker. My questions are for the Minister of Finance.

Please list all examples for the last 10 years in the departments of Municipal and Community Affairs, Public Works and Services, and Transportation where approved human resources dollars, typically listed under the main estimates category “Compensation and Benefits,” appropriated by the Legislature of the day, where money or monies have been transferred from the intended human resources activity to an operations project, program, service or any other activity for which these funds were not originally approved nor intended.

Further, please list all detailed information by:

original job activity (by department);

original approved human resources financial allocation;

amount of dollars moved, transferred or spent;

where or to what activity these funds were transferred;

when the transfers occurred; and

who signed off or approved of these human resources funding transfer to initiatives other than those for which the funds were originally appropriated for and approved by the Legislative Assembly of the day.

That’s the first question, Mr. Speaker. The second question is considerably shorter.
