It was moved to the newly formed Ministry of Health in 1972. On April 1, 1973, the name of the branch was changed to the Retardation Services Branch.
The branch ceased to exist on March 31, 1974, when functions relating to care for the mentally retarded were transferred from the Ministry of Health to the Ministry of Community and Social Services.
