    History

    The Office of the Deputy Minister of Finance, was created at the same time as the Ministry of Finance, in 1993.

    Then known simply as the Office of the Deputy Minister, it assumed most of the program and policy related functions of the former Office of the Deputy Minister, Ministry of Treasury and Economics. Administration-related functions were assigned to an Office of the Associate Deputy Minister (later renamed Deputy Minister of Revenue and Financial Institutions).

    The Office of the Deputy Minister was renamed Office of the Deputy Minister and Secretary of Treasury Board in 1994, then Office of the Deputy Minister of Finance in 1995.

    In 1997, the Office of the Deputy Minister of Finance and the Office of the Deputy Minister of Revenue and Financial Institutions were merged to form a single Deputy Minister's office for the Ministry of Finance.
