Public Service Commission and Assessment of recourse reports
The Canada Revenue Agency Act requires the CRA to include in its annual reporting a copy of any report produced under section 59 or a summary statement of any assessment produced under subsection 56(1). The report and assessment are produced on an as needed basis.
During 2014-2015, the Public Service Commission did not prepare, or have prepared on its behalf, a report to the CRA pursuant to section 59 of the Canada Revenue Agency Act on the consistency of the Agency's staffing program with the principles set out in the summary of its corporate business plan. For the same period, the CRA did not prepare pursuant to subsection 56(1) of the Canada Revenue Agency Act an assessment of the recourse the Agency provides or administers in its management of human resources.
Board Commitments and Performance Dashboard
The CRA Board of Management introduced a new internal oversight instrument in 2014-2015, the Board Commitments and Performance Dashboard. The Dashboard provides the Board with a quarterly update on the status of the CRA’s commitments from the Corporate Business Plan.
