Departments and agencies required to prepare a sustainable development strategy and respond to environmental petitions

Departments and agencies—listed in Schedule I of the Financial Administration Act and in the Schedule to the Auditor General Act, and those that have been directed by the Governor in Council under subsection 24(3) of the Auditor General Act—are required to prepare a sustainable development strategy every three years and respond to environmental petitions submitted by Canadian residents (see sections 22 and 24 of the Auditor General Act).

The following links allow you to access strategies located on departmental Web sites. These documents are not published by the Office of the Auditor General and are the responsibility of each department.

To access the Portable Document Format (PDF) version you must have a PDF reader installed. If you do not already have such a reader, there are numerous PDF readers available for free download or for purchase on the Internet.
