The table reflects forecast and currently planned spending on assets to be capitalized, funded through AAFC Vote 5 Capital and CPMA Vote 22 (Non-Personnel Capital).

Forecast Spending 2009-10 reflects the authorized funding levels to the end of the fiscal year 2009-10 (not necessarily forecast expenditures).

Planned spending reflects funds already brought into the department's reference levels as well as amounts to be authorized through the Estimates process (for the 2010-11 through to 2012-13 planning years) as presented in the Annual Reference Level Update. It also includes adjustments in future years for funding approved in the government fiscal plan, but yet to be brought into the Department's reference levels. Planned Spending has not been adjusted to include new information contained in Budget 2010. More information will be provided in the 2010-11 Supplementary Estimates.

The Planned Spending for 2010-11 is $50.3 million compared to $64.4 million for 2009-10, a decrease of $14.1 million. This is mainly attributable to the fact that 2009-10 included funding that was carried over from 2008-09. The $22.8 million decrease from 2010-11 to 2011-12 is due to new funding in 2010-11 for modernizing federal laboratories. Any amounts not actually spent in 2009-10 will be requested to be carried over to 2010-11 under the Non-lapsing Capital Appropriations pilot project that AAFC is participating in.

The figures in the above tables have been rounded. Figures that cannot be listed in millions of dollars are shown as 0.0.
