In 1985 the ministry was reorganized into three main divisions. One of these divisions was the Communication and Management Services Division.
In 1988 the Ministry again underwent reorganization and the functions of the communications branch were assumed by the Corporate Relations Branch while those of the Management Services Branch became the responsibility of the Finance and Administration Branch.
