This website provides information on the travel and hospitality expenses incurred within the Supreme Court of Canada by the Registrar and the Deputy Registrar.

The rules and principles governing travel are outlined in the Policies for Ministers’ Offices and in Treasury Board’s Travel Directive and Special Travel Authorities. The purpose of these directives is to provide for the reimbursement of reasonable expenses necessarily incurred during travel on government business.

The Government of Canada extends hospitality in accordance with the rules and principles outlined in the Guidelines for Ministers’ Offices and the Treasury Board Directive on Travel, Hospitality, Conference and Event Expenditures. The objective of the directive is to ensure that hospitality is extended in an economical and affordable way when it facilitates government business or is considered desirable as a matter of courtesy and protocol.

The information on this website will be updated every three months, beginning on March 31, 2004.”
