Canada has made progress on procurement transparency through its 2014-16 action plan. Canada can build on those commitments by endorsing and fully implementing related transparency initiatives.

A. Endorse and implement the Open Contracting Global Principles [1], which have been endorsed by the governments of the United Kingdom and Scotland [2].

B. Participate in the Construction Sector Transparency Initiative (CoST) [3] program, which 14 countries have joined including the United Kingdom [4].

C. Adopt the International Open Data Charter [5], which has been adopted by 10 national governments including Italy, France, Mexico and the United Kingdom [6].
