| 2022-23 | 100% – 100% | 2023 | 82% Estimates devised for how much funding will be approved in a given fiscal year are developed well in advance of the fiscal year in question. The ability of the department to achieve the target amount is subject to the availability of funds, shifting priorities of the Government of Canada and the applications received. | Not met |
| 2023-24 | 100% – 100% | 2024 | 48.6% Estimates of how much new funding the Department is expected to commit are developed well in advance of the fiscal year.
