The committee remains confused about the placement of dollars for the IGF. The committee noted that while federal funding was not yet confirmed for the continuation of the IGF, that the ministry had still placed dollars within their budget for that purpose. However, when the committee asked why there were no ministry dollars set aside for the new Economic Development Advisory Forum under the IGF, the committee was told that it was because the ministry had not yet received confirmation of funding from the federal government. This was also the case for the capacity building aspect of the IGF. The committee would like to see a more standardized reporting of funds that rely on cost sharing with the federal government.
