      This committee was the forerunner of the Ontario Manpower Commission. Its formation was announced by the Premier of Ontario on May 21, 1974. The purpose of the Committee was similar to that of the Ontario Manpower Commission. When the Commission was formally created in 1979, the Committee ceased its existence. The Committee was supported by the Manpower Secretariat.

      Functions, occupations and activities

      Chaired by the Minister of Labour, the Ontario Manpower Coordinating Committee consisted of the Deputy Minister and Deputy Provincial Secretaries of the ministries and policy fields having manpower responsibilities. The Committee was established to develop and articulate the Ontario position on manpower issues, to improve interministerial cooperation and information flows, and to ensure that Ontario's interests as opposed to those of just one Ministry were reflected in any dealings with the federal government on workforce issues. The Committee Secretariat was responsible for the overall coordination functions, including defining and analyzing manpower issues and policies, exchange of information on the labour market, representing Ontario at federal-provincial meetings and developing manpower policies and programs not assigned to a particular Ministry .
