History
The Ontario Department of Economics and Federal and Provincial Relations was established on January 27, 1961, replacing the Department of Economics.
The Minister responsible for the Department was the Treasurer of Ontario. Reporting to the Treasurer, and responsible for administering the day-to-day operations of the Department, was the Deputy Minister of Economics and Federal and Provincial Relations. In addition to the Deputy Minister's Office, the Department consisted of the General Economics Branch, the Finance Branch, the Economics Statistics Branch, and the Inter-governmental Relations Branch.
The Department existed for less than a year, and was amalgamated with the Department of Commerce and Development on December 15, 1961, to form the Ontario Department of Economics and Development.
