SUSTAINABLE DEVELOPMENT STRATEGY
Progress Report on 2001-2003 Strategy
Annex B: Assessing Progress on DFO's 2001-2003 SDS
To assess progress on DFO's 2001-2003 SDS commitments, qualitative measures have been used in this document to evaluate the 41 planned activities. The measures are meant to describe DFO's progress toward the targets - the 41 planned activities - to which DFO committed in its 2001-2003 SDS. These measures are the same as those reported in Appendix B of the March 2003 report of the Commissioner of the Environment and Sustainable Development, except that a sixth category, Progress toward target continues, has been added.
