      History

      The Administrative Services Branch was created in April, 1972, within the Ministry of Consumer and Commercial Relations. It formed part of the Program Support Division.

      When the Management Secretariat ceased to exist in 1976, audit functions were transferred from the Secretariat to the Administrative Services Branch. In 1978, these were divided off into a separate branch, the Audit Services Branch.

      The Administrative Services Branch ceased to exist sometime during 1980, when it gradually lost its branch status. Its fuctions were absorbed into the existing Finance and Systems Branch.
