      Historique

      The Communications Division was created in 1972 when the Ontario Ministry of Industry and Tourism was formed, and replaced the former Information and Promotion Division of the Department of Tourism and Information. It also absorbed some functions of the Information Services Branch of the Ontario Department of Trade and Development.

      Although the function of the division remained constant, the internal organization varied considerably. In 1972, the division comprised an Advertising Branch, an Audio-Visual Branch, a Public Relations Branch and a Travel Services Branch. By 1974 these had been consolidated into the Communications Services Branch and the Communications Planning Branch. In 1976, the Communications Planning Branch ceased to exist, presumably absorbed by the Communications Services Branch. However, the sections within the Communications Services Branch continue to reflect the basic functions of news and photography, films, audio-visual, advertising and publications. In 1979, the division was organized into the Media Relations Branch and the Communications Services Branch, and the Advertising and Promotion Services Group.

      The Communications Division ceased to exist along with the Ministry of Industry and Tourism in 1982. The Media Relations Branch was largely replaced with a new Communications Branch, while the Creative Services Branch became the Promotion Services Branch.
