PREFACE

The 2019-20 Government Estimates reports the requirements for public monies from the General Revenue Fund to fund the operations of the Government of Alberta for the year commencing April 1, 2019. Together with the 2019-20 Offices of the Legislative Assembly Estimates, the estimates identify the total requirements for public monies from the General Revenue Fund for the year.

This Preface provides a summary of the information presented, an overview of the appropriations process, a summary of major changes in organization and financial reporting policy, and definitions of supply votes and selected terms.

The Schedule of Amounts to be Voted illustrates how the supply votes will be presented in the schedule to the Appropriation Act, 2019 to be tabled in the Legislative Assembly.

Summaries of the Government Estimates are provided in the following tables:

◾ Total Government Estimates by Type of Vote;

◾ Voted Amounts by Department;

◾ Statutory Amounts by Department;

◾ Non-cash Amounts by Department;

◾ Entity Statutory Amounts by Ministry; and

◾ Reconciliation of Supply Votes to the Consolidated Government Estimate.

The Details of 2019-20 Government Estimates presents information on amounts for each department to be drawn from the General Revenue Fund as required by section 24 of the Financial Administration Act. The details include the following information, as applicable:

◾ Amounts to be Voted;

◾ Description of Supply Vote Elements (NEW);

◾ Expense Vote by Program;

◾ Capital Investment Vote by Program;

◾ Financial Transactions Vote by Program;

◾ Voted Amounts Funded by Credit or Recovery; and

◾ Amounts Not Required to be Voted.

In addition to the information specifically required by the Financial Administration Act, the details presented include supplementary financial information showing the relation between each ministry’s supply vote amounts and the consolidated fiscal plan:

◾ Reconciliations of Supply Votes to the Consolidated Government Estimate by program and by type of Fiscal Plan spending category; and

◾ Statement of Operations, Change in Capital Assets, and Change in Inventory Assets, as appropriate, for the ministry.

Appropriations from the General Revenue Fund

In Alberta, the supply process is governed by the conventions and legal requirements of the Canadian Constitution, Alberta’s Financial Administration Act, and the Standing Orders of the Legislative Assembly of Alberta.

When the 2019-20 Government Estimates is tabled in the Legislative Assembly, the government makes a motion to refer the report to Legislative Policy Committees’ for consideration. After the Legislative Policy Committees’ discussions, the Committee of Supply will pass a resolution affirming certain estimate amounts as allocated to each supply vote. Finally, the supply votes as approved by the resolutions of Committee of Supply will be drafted into the Appropriation Act, 2019 Bill and introduced to the Legislative Assembly. Once this bill is enacted by royal assent, the government will have the authority to draw cash from the General Revenue Fund up to the limits of the supply votes set out in the Act.

The 2019-20 Government Estimates details the estimated amounts required by each department for the coming year. Each department’s estimate amounts are divided into:

◾ those that require authority to draw cash from the General Revenue Fund under a supply vote pursuant to an appropriation act; and

i PREFACE

◾ those that do not require a supply vote either because the amounts already have disbursement authority under a statute other than an appropriation act, or because no cash disbursement is required.

Non-cash amounts do not require a supply vote, an appropriation act or any other statutory authority because these amounts do not require any expenditure or payment of public money. Most non-cash amounts are for expenses related to cash disbursed under a supply vote in a previous fiscal year. For example, amortization expense is related to the cash disbursements authorized under a capital investment vote when the capital asset was built or acquired. Other non-cash amounts are for

transactions that will not require cash, such as the year-over-year changes in vacation benefit liabilities.

Budget Presentation and Government Organization Methodology

Budget 2019 documents present the fully consolidated financial reporting entity of the Alberta Government including all entities financially controlled by the Province under Public Sector Accounting Board (PSAB) standards and guidance. These 2019-20 Government Estimates reflect the Province’s budget presentation methodology and the organization of government ministries as of October 24, 2019.

Budget 2019 introduces a number of changes to the presentation of the estimates and budget documents. The largest change is the streamlining of the estimates document itself to focus on the specific legislative requirements set out in section 24 of the Financial Administration Act. Supplementary information on financial entities and consolidation adjustments has been moved into a separate 2019-20 Entity Financial Information volume published in electronic form on the Budget 2019 website and on the government’s open data portal at https://open.alberta.ca/opendata.

Changes made by the Government in the 2018-19 Ministry Annual Reports replaced audited ministry and department financial statements with key financial information to eliminate redundant information. Key information previously contained in the annual reports of each ministry is now included in one place: the Audited Consolidated Financial Statements of the Province. In keeping with these changes in annual report presentation, the ministry and entity statements presented in the 2019-20 Government Estimates and the 2019-20 Entity Financial Information replace the both the former ministry and department statements and show how the ministry’s activities affect the consolidated government as a whole.

The new 2019-20 Entity Financial Information volume contains the following information formerly found in the estimates for each ministry, as appropriate:

◾ Statement of Operations, Change in Capital Assets, and Change in Inventory Assets, as appropriate, for the ministry;

◾ Effect of Entities on the Consolidated Government Estimate;

◾ Statement of Operations, Change in Capital Assets, and Change in Inventory Assets, as appropriate, for the regulated funds, provincial agencies and corporations, and government business enterprises of the ministry;

◾ Statement of the Effect of Arm’s Length Institutions on the ministry, as appropriate; and

◾ Statements of Consolidation Amounts both within the Ministry and between Ministries.

Finally, the new volume contains an appendix that lists by ministry each of the financial reporting entities contained within the consolidated government reporting entity.

Other changes to estimates presentation for 2019-20 are as follows:

◾ Part of the space created by moving entity financial information to a separate volume has been used to provide additional descriptive detail on the supply vote elements.

◾ The 2019-20 Government Estimates no longer presents supplementary financial information on the Effect of Climate Leadership Plan on the Consolidated Government Estimate.

◾ The structure of the Expense and Capital Investment supply votes has been modified to move capital payments to related parties into the Expense vote along side all other capital grant expenses.

As in past budgets, the comparable amounts presented in these estimates may not match the amounts originally presented in the Government of Alberta 2018-19 Annual Report released on June 28, 2019 or the Budget 2018 documents tabled on

PREFACE ii

March 22, 2018. Any such differences are the result of adjustments applied to maintain the comparability of past amounts with 2019-20 estimate amounts.

The Lieutenant Governor in Council passed a Designation and Transfer of Responsibility Regulation under the Government Organization Act on April 30, 2019. The changes to government organization were as follows:

◾ The Ministry of Culture, Multiculturalism and Status of Women was made responsible for the programs and activities of the former Ministry of Status of Women, and for the Anti-Racism Secretariat, which was formerly the responsibility of the Ministry of Education.

◾ The Ministry of Economic Development, Trade and Tourism was made responsible for tourism programs, which were formerly the responsibility of the Ministry of Culture, Multiculturalism and Status of Women.

◾ The Ministry of Treasury Board and Finance was made responsible for capital planning activities, which were formerly the responsibility of the Ministry of Infrastructure.

◾ The Ministry of Executive Council was made responsible for internal trade activities, which were formerly the responsibility of the Ministry of Economic Development, Trade and Tourism.

Budget 2019 includes the following program structure changes taking effect on October 24, 2019 under the authority of the Appropriation Act, 2019.

◾ The Public Service Commission in the Ministry of Treasury Board and Finance will be made responsible for the Strategic Integration Branch, which was formerly the responsibility of the Ministry of Service Alberta.

◾ The Ministry of Service Alberta will be made responsible for certain information management technology, which was formerly the responsibility of the Ministries of Education and Agriculture and Forestry.

◾ The Ministry of Infrastructure will be made responsible for certain school construction projects, which were formerly the responsibility of the Ministry of Education.

In addition to restatements for reasons of program reorganizations, the following reporting and presentation adjustments were included in anticipation of the legislative amendments and requirements that will be enacted by the Fiscal Measures and Taxation Statutes Amendment Act, the Ensuring Fiscal Sustainability Act, and the Reform of Agencies Boards and Commissions and Government Enterprises Act:

◾ Pursuant to amendments to the Financial Administration Act, a new type of transferrable supply vote has been added in the Ministry of Treasury Board and Finance to provide funding for disasters, emergencies and contingencies during the 2019-20 fiscal year.

◾ The assets, liabilities, revenues and program activities, obligations and expenditures of the following regulated funds have been moved into the General Revenue Fund under the administration of the Ministry of Treasury Board and Finance:

◾ Access to the Future Fund;

◾ Alberta Cancer Prevention Legacy Fund; and

◾ Lottery Fund.

◾ The assets, liabilities, revenues and program activities, obligations and expenditures of the following regulated funds and provincial agencies have been moved into the General Revenue Fund under the administration of the Ministry of Culture, Multiculturalism and Status of Women:

◾ Historic Resources Fund;

◾ Alberta Historical Resources Foundation; and

◾ Alberta Sport Connection.

◾ The assets, liabilities, revenues and program activities, obligations and expenditures of the Environmental Protection and Enhancement Fund have been moved into the General Revenue Fund under the administration of the Ministry of Agriculture and Forestry.

Definitions of Supply Votes and Other Terms

An Estimate is the amount requested by the government to meet each of its planned commitments for the fiscal year commencing April 1, 2019. The Financial Administration Act requires the 2019-20 Government Estimates to report estimates of any amount that will require a cash withdrawal from the General Revenue Fund.

An Appropriation is an authorization to withdraw and expend public money from the General Revenue Fund or another provincial fund. Following parliamentary tradition, the Financial Administration Act requires that all such authorities be provided in legislation passed by the Legislative Assembly. Appropriations may be created by an appropriation act or other statute. The

iii PREFACE

Committee of Supply must create appropriations under an appropriation act pursuant to a supply vote, or a set of supply votes, as resolved.

A Supply Vote is a discrete allocation from the 2019-20 estimates that defines the amount of cash funding that may be drawn from the General Revenue Fund for a specified purpose. Following the principle of ministerial accountability, supply votes are divided along departmental lines. For most ministries, three types of supply vote are used in the 2019-20 Government Estimates: Expense, Capital Investment and Financial Transactions. A fourth type of supply vote has been provided for the Ministry of Treasury Board and Finance for Contingency and Disaster and Emergency Assistance.

Expense amounts are cash disbursements for the purposes of salaries, supplies and services, operating grants, capital grants to parties outside the consolidated government, as well as interest expense and other debt servicing costs for borrowing related to both capital and general government purposes. These amounts include capital payments to related parties that are expected to result in the creation of a tangible capital asset for that related party and for the consolidated government as a whole. Capital payments to related parties are shown under a separate header.

Capital Investment consists of cash disbursements for the purposes of investments in department tangible capital assets valued at $5,000 or more.

Financial Transactions consist of cash disbursements for the purposes of payments for the reduction of a liability (including debt repayment), expenses to be recognized in a future year, the acquisition of financial assets (including in particular the making of loans or advances), or the purchase of inventories. Financial liabilities for alternatively financed capital projects are reduced by payments from a Financial Transactions vote.

The Contingency and Disaster and Emergency Assistance supply vote consists of a provisional funding authority transferrable to any ministry to address requirements for disasters, emergencies and other contingencies as directed by the Lieutenant Governor in Council during the year.
