History
The Correctional Services Division was created within the Ministry of the Solicitor General and Correctional Services in 1994, replacing the Operations Division.
The Division was headed by an Assistant Deputy Minister with field operations administered by four regional offices located throughout the province.
When the Ministry of the Solicitor General and Correctional Services was divided into the Ministry of the Solicitor General and the Ministry of Correctional Services in 1999, major functions of the Correctional Services Division were transferred to a new unit named Community and Young Offender Services, headed by an Assistant Deputy Minister.
