Reporting on Green Procurement 2022-23
This supplementary information table supports reporting on green procurement activities in accordance with the Policy on Green Procurement.
Context
The PMPRB is bound by the Federal Sustainable Development Act but did not develop an optional 2022–23 DSDS Report. Instead, to comply with the reporting requirements under the Policy on Green Procurement for 2022 to 2023, the Reporting on Green Procurement supplementary information table was prepared and listed in the 2022–23 Departmental Results Report.
