Refine by MP, party, committee, province, or result type.
Government Operations committee I believe that is possible. We'll have to compile the material because it's not a single document. There's a number of studies in different departments. We can get back to the committee with that.

Government Operations committee For the research that has been done, I think that sounds fine.
November 3rd, 2009Committee meeting

Government Operations committee We could certainly get back to the committee. I have a piece of paper; unfortunately it's only in one official language at the moment. But this is the breakdown: finance spending on the economic action plan—this was for two phases of work in June and September-October of this yea

Government Operations committee My colleague has noted as well, just for clarity, that signage is in departmental budgets, but for the advertising proper--television, radio, and so on--that's $34 million. There will be some additional spending this year. I believe it's in the order--

Government Operations committee No. This is just for advertising, not signage. Signage would be in departmental program budgets.

Simon Kennedy
Government Operations committee Not for signage, ma'am, no.

Government Operations committee Madam Chair, there's no specific overall dollar figure. There are two things here. One is with regard to additional spending. There is a plan to do some additional spending on advertising this fiscal year. I don't have the specific amount available. It's relatively small in ter

Government Operations committee Madam Chair, the question on cost has already been answered in terms of how it could be compiled. But I can confirm that the number of expected signs would be roughly comparable to the number of projects on the website, which is around 6,500 to 7,000.

Government Operations committee I'm not aware of any plan that would have that many billboards installed.
November 3rd, 2009Committee meeting
Simon Kennedy
Government Operations committee Madam Chair, I can leave the committee our signage guide, which clearly states when it is necessary to have a billboard and when a small sign is required.
November 3rd, 2009Committee meeting
Simon Kennedy
Government Operations committee —having such a large number of billboards, no, not at all.
November 3rd, 2009Committee meeting
Simon Kennedy
Government Operations committee For example, Mr. Chair, in terms of the question, all of the various advertising campaigns, as I mentioned last time I was before the committee, are being run under a common look and feel—a common banner, a common brand, if you like. The Privy Council Office is managing the websi

Simon Kennedy
Government Operations committee I think that will be fine.
November 19th, 2009Committee meeting
Simon Kennedy
Government Operations committee Well, Mr. Chair, there are two different kinds of exemptions. One is, broadly speaking, the communications policy for the government. I must open a parenthesis here. I am not the lead for that; that would be the Treasury Board, if we speak in detail. Generally speaking, the c
