REPL Y / RÉPONSE ORIGINAL TEXT TEXTE ORIGINAL
TRANSLATION D TRADUCTION
The Department of National Defence and the Canadian Forces (DNDfCF) searched aflavailable records relating to the use of CF-owned or leased aÎrcraft by a Minister, Minister of State or Parliamentary Secretary inside or outside of Canada. The attached table provides the information requested in parts (a) through (i), for the period of 01 J.anuary 2010 to 30 November 2011.
Where the means of electronically screening flight records weJe limited, every attempt was made to manually identify relevant fllghts,. including flights that may not have been recorded undera ministerial-related duty code. Mission codes generally reflect the primary purpose of the mission, including observation flights over regions of natural disaster for which the CF is providing assistance to other authorities and famîliarÎzation flights on specifie CF operational and training f1ights. In an attempt ta capture ail relevant flight records, an extensive document search using manual techniques has been completed.
DND did not capture f1ight details associated witha Minister, Minister of State or Parliamentary Secretary's travel to or within Afghanistan. Flight details for Afghanistan require careful screening and management in terms of the purpose of each and every passengerand programmed flight.
ln cases where multiple MinÎsters flew onboard the same aircraft, the flight has beenattributed to the Minister who either (a) submitted the request for the use ofthat particular CF-owned or !eased aircraft or (b) was the sole Minfster known to have travelled onboard the aircraft. For example, ifthe Prime Ministerof Canada requested the use ofa CF-owned or leased aircraft and one or two Ministers accompanied him on this trip, the flight is listed with the Prime Minister as thelead authority and the other Ministers as passengers. Alternatively, if a flight was requested by the Prime Minister but he flew onboard a separate aircraft, the f1ight would be attributed to a Minister who actually flew onboard the aircraft. This method of
.. ./2
reporting was chosen since listing the same flight separately under each Minister would skew the total number of times a CF-owned or leased aircraft was used.
Notes
1 For (c) "type of aircraft used," the response includes ail relevant aircraft, as identified by model number:
i Model Number Name ! CC 130 Hercules 1 CC 138 Twin Otter 1 CC 144 .fhallenger ! CC 150 Airbus (A-310) 1 CC 177 Globemaster III i CH 124 Sea King CH 146 Griffon CH 149 Cormorant
ISE 200 Seechcraft King Air 200
2 For (e) "who accompanied the Minister," the table includes allavailable information that cou/d be readily extractedfrom aircraft passenger manifests, with the exception of the names of se cu rit Y personnel and lower-ranked militaryofficials who provided support to the particular Minister's travel. Forflights conducted by DND Administrative Flight Services, including Challenger aircraft, passenger manifestsare believed to be accu rate and complete since passengertracking is a standard practice for this service. However, passenger details are not consistent across fleets, and in some cases are not available. The Royal Canadian Air Force does not retain passenger manifests withaJI of its flight records, as the purpose of passenger manifests is to account for occupants while in-flight, in the event of an emergency.
3 For (f), the Royal Canadian Air Force (RCAF) provided Whatever detaUs wereavailable through existing flight records. However, due to time constraints, it was impossible to ascertainor verify the exact nature or purpose of each and every trip; to do so would have requiredextensive consultation with each Minister, Minister of State or Parliamentary Secretary, which could not have been conducted in the time available.
4 For (h), the costs provided are based on estimates of fleet-wide averages, as reported in DND's Cost Factors Manual, except in the cases of the CC-144 Challenger where 412 (T) Squadron maintains its own tables with the actual variable and fixed costs by fiscal year, and the SE200 which is based on contracted lease rates and average incremental cost. The cost of each flight was determined by applying the hourly operating cost factor for each aircraft type against the reported number of aircraft flying hours: Le., from the aircraft's point of departure to final destination. However, ît is important to note that the aircraft's point of departure may have been different from the point of departure of the Iisted Minister, Minister of State or Parliamentary Secretary, as there can be severallegs on any given flight. The costs therefore cannat necessarily be mapped directly against a particular minister onboard the aircraft.
Where costsare shawn as a bJank, the flight was tasked by someone other than the Minister listed. The Minister's presence as a passenger created no additional costs.
ln terms of Cost Factors, costs are c1assified into two groups. Variable Cost includes ail operating costs such as aircraft maintenance costs, fuel, aircraft handling and landîng fees, crew costs while flying, catering, and incidentals. The second category îs Fixed Costs, which include crewsalaries, rentai fees, special services fees, pilot training, office communication, supplies, and amortization of capital. These costs are
2
incurred whether a 1:light Îs taken or not. The DND/CF use variable costs for planning and reporting purposes, since the only incremental co st to DND is the one associated with the flying of the aircraft.
5 For (i), the RCAF does not record specifie meal options that are made avaitable ta a Minister Or other traveJers. However, it should be noted that in-flight meals are only provided on select flights of sufficiently long duration.
