Performance Report on Sustainable Development April 1, 2010 to March 31, 2011

Message from the SD Steering Committee (SDSC)

This report marks a period of transition for the Canada Revenue Agency (CRA) Sustainable Development (SD) Program. We navigated between implementing targets from the previous strategy and preparing an updated strategy under the new Federal Sustainable Development Strategy. By continuing interventions in ongoing areas, we once again demonstrated strong SD performance.

We invested much effort into preparing a strategy that both addressed our federal SD requirements, and supported the cost savings priorities of the CRA. Being aware that the strategy would be implemented within a climate of fiscal constraint; we levered this factor to identify targets that support both corporate efficiency and sustainable development.

We thank our management committees, subject matter experts, employees, and stakeholders for their contributions to preparing a document that challenges and captures our collective will to truly establish SD in the CRA corporate culture.

Through our continued commitment, we will maintain the CRA as a federal leader in sustainable development.
