      History

      The Gaming Secretariat was created when responsibility for oversight of the Ontario Lottery Corporation and Ontario Casino Corporation was transferred to the Management Board of Cabinet from the Ministry of Economic Development, Trade and Tourism and the Ministry of Consumer and Commercial Relations, respectively.

      In 2000, the responsibilities of the Gaming Secretariat were transferred to the new Agency Relations Office of the Management Board of Cabinet. This office performed similar activities, though it had responsibility for a much broader range of agencies.
