Bill Detail

Bill C-43, now known as the Appropriation Act No. 5, 2022–23, is a law that authorizes the federal government to spend over $4.6 billion. This money is for various federal public administration expenses for the fiscal year ending March 31, 2023, that weren't covered by other existing funds. The Act ensures that these funds are used for specific purposes and under certain conditions outlined in the Supplementary Estimates (C) for that year.

This legislation affects all federal departments and agencies that rely on these additional funds to operate and deliver services during the specified fiscal year. It ensures continuity in government operations by providing the necessary financial resources to cover unforeseen or outstanding expenses, ultimately impacting the services and programs Canadians receive from their federal government.
