      History

      The Department of Revenue was established on April 23, l968 in response to the recommendations of the Ontario Committee on Taxation, which felt that the revenue functions of the Treasury Department merited separate ministerial attention.

      The Department consisted of the Office of the Minister, the Office of the Deputy Minister, the Revenue Division and the Administrative Services Division. Branches within the Revenue Division included the Gasoline Tax Branch, the Retail Sales Tax Branch, the Succession Duty Branch, and the Corporations Tax Branch and Logging Tax Branch.

      The Administrative Division provided accounting, personnel, and systems and programming services to both the Department of Revenue and the Department of Treasury and Economics.

      In 1972, the Government of Ontario was considerably reorganized as the various Departments were restructured and renamed as Ministries. With this change, the Department of Revenue was replaced with the Ministry of Revenue.
