Annex B – Status of Action Plan measures
Overview
This Annex provides a high-level overview of the current status of each of the Action Plan measures (APM) as reported by Departments and Agencies. Where multiple submissions were received for a single measure Justice Canada performed an analysis to determine its overall start date, status, if consultation and cooperation occurred, and links to other federal initiatives.
APM Status
Departments and agencies were asked to self-evaluate the status of each of the action plan measures they were working on and make a selection from one of the following options:
- Not started: Action Plan Measure may or may not be assigned to a team / Planning work has yet to start
- Planning stage: Assignments, scoping, consultation and cooperation plans are being developed - this could be internal only or in consultation and cooperation with partners
- Fully underway: Work towards delivering on the Action Plan measure has begun but is not yet complete or finalized
- Implementation complete: For actions with discrete endings (for example development of a policy, tool, or legislation), the end date will be when the work is completed (in the case of legislation this would be when Royal Assent is received)
- Implementation ongoing: For actions where the commitment will continue indefinitely (for example, ongoing trainings, programs, etc.) or where the objective of the action requires ongoing commitments (for example, eliminating racism, honouring the treaties, etc.)
- Other: Write-in option (for example, on hold, canceled, etc)
Where federal organizations provided multiple submissions for an Action Plan measure, Justice Canada performed an analysis to determine its overall status. Action Plan measures with sub-elements and multiple submissions from federal organizations show a range of their “current status” as they may be at various stages of implementation.
Consultation and cooperation
Departments and agencies were asked whether they had consulted and cooperated with Indigenous peoples on the action plan measure or legislative / regulatory initiative in the 2023-24 fiscal year. The options departments and agencies had to select were ‘Yes’, ‘No’, and ‘Consultation and cooperation took place prior to 2023-24.’ Where multiple submissions were received with differing answers, a judgement call was made to determine a suitable response. A ‘Yes’ or ‘No’ response does not mean that all elements of the Action Plan measure or all departments working on the Action Plan measure did or did not consult and cooperate on that measure during the 2023-24 fiscal year.
Link to other federal initiatives
Departments and agencies were asked whether the action plan measure they were working on linked to other federal initiatives such as responding to the Calls to Action of the Truth and Reconciliation Commission, the Calls for Justice of the National Inquiry into Missing and Murdered Indigenous Women and Girls, the Sustainable Development Goals, etc.
