  • The Role of Deputy Ministers in Canadian Government
    10 The Role of Deputy Ministers in Canadian Government Chapter Summary The role of the deputy minister (DM) is the main interchange between the political head of a department, the minister, and the public servants of the department. In an advisory capacity to the minister, the deputy minister serves primarily as the Chief Executive Officer (CEO) of a department. The deputy minister is not subject to the merit system of the Public Service of Canada (PSC) but must follow most provisions as outlined in the Public Service Employment Act. A deputy minister’s position can be made through a discretionary appointment, by designation or selection, or through an appointment process by the Governor-in Council on the advice and recommendation of the prime minister. The powers of the deputy minister are not specified in any specific statute, except for several regulatory departments such as Revenue, Consumer Affairs, Justice, and Immigration. A DM is considered the manager of all of the financial and human resources of a department as well as serving as an accounting officer. In addition, the deputy minister implements the appropriate statutes for a department and can contribute to the drafting of rules and regulations and undertake related policy-making decisions. The accountability of a deputy minister can be both challenging and difficult to understand. The DM is answerable to many different people within the political process. For example, a DM is responsible to parliament and its committees for the work of his or her ministry and ultimately to the PM, who made the recommendation to have them serve as DM for a specific department.

    Canadian Energy Security What Does Energy Security Mean for Canada? 2009-10 Capstone seminar student report Graduate School of Public and International Affairs, University of Ottawa In collaboration with the Canadian Security Intelligence Service Canadian Energy Security Page | 2 This report highlights the results of a Capstone seminar on Canada and Global Energy Security given (in English) by the University of Ottawa in 2009-10. The Capstone seminars expose graduate students to strategic issues and are jointly designed and taught by a member of faculty and a practitioner. The seminar covered by this report results from close collaboration between the university and Canada’s security and intelligence community. Guided by the seminar supervisors, its content was developed by the participating students and does not represent formal positions on the part of the organizations involved.

Securing the processes through which that energy is produced, delivered and consumed is therefore of paramount importance. Many countries view the primary goal of energy security to be securing a reliable supply. In the case of Canada, a country rich in energy resources, energy security is a more complex concept.

  • 5. the Responsibilities and Accountabilities of Deputy Ministers
    5 CHAPTER FIVE THE RESPONSIBILITIES AND ACCOUNTABILITIES OF DEPUTY MINISTERS This chapter examines the responsibilities and accountabilities of the most senior public servants, the Deputy Ministers. Deputy Ministers are the managers of the departments of government. Under their Ministers, they direct the administration of financial and human resources.They advise the Minister on policy issues and on reforms to administration.Together they form a community that must work as a team to coordinate and direct the work of government. Most policy initiatives cross-cut several departments and demand coordination of policy-making in several departments.Deputy Ministers have extensive management and other responsibilities. As the managers of departments, Deputy Ministers are responsible for the work and actions of the public servants under them. It is their job 83 84 RESTORING ACCOUNTABILITY:RECOMMENDATIONS to ensure that departmental administration meets established standards. Not only their Ministers but Parliament as well must be assured that Deputy Ministers fulfill their responsibilities as departmental managers. The Statutory Responsibilities of Deputy Ministers The statutory responsibilities of Deputy Ministers originate from two different sources.First are their responsibilities under the Interpretation Act1 and other departmental acts which permit Deputy Ministers to act in the name of Ministers for all powers possessed by Ministers, except the power to make regulations. There is no question that, for the exercise of these powers, Deputy Ministers act under the authority delegated by their particular Minister, and they are ultimately accountable to those Ministers for the use of these powers. Ministers are,in turn,accountable to Parliament for what was done,whether the Minister or the Deputy Minister actually made the decision.
