The use of the wording "contribution arrangement" is used by CIDA [Canadian International Development Agency] to cover for when dealing with foreign governments, international financial institutions and multilateral organizations such as the UN [United Nations] system as the word "agreement" implies the signing of a treaty or similar document. All the requirements of the Treasury Board Policy on Transfer Payments still apply to contribution arrangements. 1, record 1, English, - contribution%20arrangement

L'expression «entente de contribution» est utilisée par l'ACDI [Agence canadienne de développement international] pour se protéger lorsqu'elle traite avec des gouvernements étrangers, des institutions financières internationales et des organisations multilatérales comme celles du système de l'ONU [Organisation des Nations Unies], car le mot «accord» suppose que l'on signe un traité ou un document analogue. Toutes les exigences de la Politique du Conseil du Trésor sur les paiements de transfert s'appliquent également aux ententes de contribution. 1, record 1, French, - entente%20de%20contribution

Saskatchewan's Workers’ Compensation Board is an independent body created by provincial legislation, the Workers’ Compensation Act 1979, General Regulations, and Exclusion Regulations to administer a compensation system on behalf of workers and employers. Guided by the Meredith Principles and our vision, mission and values, we are financially independent of government and special-interest groups. We collect assessment premiums from employers and make appropriate payments to injured workers from a common fund. An effective system requires co-operative partnerships among workers, employers, caregivers and WCB administrators. 2, record 3, English, - The%20Workers%26rsquo%3B%20Compensation%20Board
