History
The Transfer Payments and Financial Reporting Branch was created in 2001 as part of the Elementary/Secondary Business and Finance Division. Previously, the administration of operating grants was the responsibility of the Business Services Branch of the same division. Once the Transfer Payments and Financial Reporting Branch was established, the Business Services Branch's main function changed to developing and implementing policy surrounding the operating grants. The Transfer Payments and Financial Reporting Branch consisted of two units: the Transfer Payment Unit and the Financial Reporting Unit.
In 2010, the branch was dissolved and most of its functions were taken over by the Transfer Payments Accountability Unit within the Financial Analysis and Accountability Branch.
