Dataset Description
Under the Municipal Government Act, the Minister has the authority to prescribe the type of information to be provided by a municipality to the Minister [s.451 (1(b)]. In Nova Scotia, the municipality is required to submit financial information to the Department of Municipal Affairs (DMA) through the standard Financial Information Return (FIR). The Province then compiles an Annual Municipal Statistics Report based on the data municipalities provide.
