History
With the passage of the Management Board of Cabinet Act in 1971, the Treasury Board was converted into the Management Board of Cabinet. With this change, the Board was given additional responsibility for the management of the public service. The Management Board consists of a Chairman (usually a Cabinet Minister), a Vice-Chairman, and between four and six other members of the Executive Council.
From 1971 to 2005, the Board was supported by the Management Board Secretariat. The Secretariat was abolished in 2005 and most of its functions transferred to the new Ministry of Government services; the Deputy Minister of Government Services also served as Secretary to the Management Board.
The Secretariat was also assisted by the Civil Service Commission of Ontario.
In 1991, the financial management functions of the Management Board of Cabinet and its Secretariat were transferred to a new Treasury Board, which was established within the Ministry of Treasury and Economics. In 1995, however, the Treasury Board was dissolved and these functions once again became the responsibility of the Management Board and the Management Board Secretariat. These functions were transferred to the Ministry of Finance in 2005.
In 2014, the Management Board along with the Treasury Board became a joint sub-committee of cabinet as a result of the re-establishment of the Treasury Board and Treasury Board Secretariat.
