      History

      In the late 1980s, the Ministry of Agriculture and Food decided to move its operations to Guelph and so decided to create the Guelph Development Branch under the Deputy Minister's Office to administer the Guelph Development Project.

      By 1991, the Guelph Development Branch ceased to exist, and the Guelph Development Project became the responsibility of Finance and Administration. In 1993-1994 the Relocation and Administration Services Branch under the Corporation Services Division took over the responsibilities previously held by the Guelph Development Project.
