List of sponsored travel
The Commissioner’s Office publishes an annual List of Sponsored Travel by Members. By March 31 each year, it sends the Speaker of the House of Commons the list for the previous calendar year. The Speaker tables it in the House.
Sponsored travel is any travel worth more than $200 that is not fully paid by the government, a political party, a recognized parliamentary association, or the Members. Under the Conflict of Interest Code for Members of the House of Commons, Members can accept sponsored travel for themselves and their guests but must disclose it to the Commissioner’s Office. Sponsored trips appear in the public registry throughout the year.
Members’ Compliance Status Report
The Members’ compliance status report shows where each Member is in the initial compliance process under the Conflict of Interest Code for Members of the House of Commons. That process begins soon after they are elected or re-elected, either in a general election or in a by-election. Updates to individual Members’ information appear in the public registry throughout the year.
The Commissioner's Office publishes an update almost every month. It doesn’t update the status report during general elections. That’s because when the Governor General dissolves (ends) Parliament on the advice of the Prime Minister, Members of the House of Commons are no longer Members.
