The purpose of this evaluation was to assess the relevance and performance of the EDF. This evaluation is part of EC's 2012 Risk-Based Audit and Evaluation Plan, which was approved by the Deputy Minister. The evaluation was conducted in order to meet the coverage requirements of the Treasury Board Policy on Evaluation, which require that an evaluation of all direct program spending be conducted at least once every five years. The EDF is a specified purpose account created by the Government of Canada in 1995 and administered by EC. The EDF provides a mechanism for directing funds received as a result of fines, court orders and voluntary payments related to environmental infractions to priority projects that will benefit Canada’s natural environment. Since 1998, the EDF has allocated or committed over $4.8 million and has funded 201 projects across Canada"--Executive summary, page i.
