| − | '''Question''' | + | '''Q2: What information can be posted to the Open Government Portal (open.canada.ca)?''' |
| | <div class="mw-collapsible-content"> | | <div class="mw-collapsible-content"> |
| − | Answer
| + | With respect to publishing to the Open Government Portal, there are templates in place for many proactive publication requirements (contracts, grants and contributions, travel and hospitality expenses, reclassification of positions, titles and tracking numbers of memoranda, and Question Period notes). |
| | + | |
| | + | For proactive publications that do not have a template, such as reports tabled in Parliament, briefing materials for new ministers and deputy heads, and briefing materials for Parliamentary Committee appearances, institutions can publish to [[/open.canada.ca/en/proactive-disclosure|open.canada.ca]] as an ‘Open Information’ resource; or publish to their institutional page and create a metadata record on [[/open.canada.ca/en/proactive-disclosure|open.canada.ca]]. This ensures that all proactive publications are searchable on [[/open.canada.ca/en/proactive-disclosure|open.canada.ca]]. |
| | + | |
| | + | Publications must meet official language and accessibility standards as per the Government’s ''Policy on Communications and Federal Identity''. |

| − | Answer
