      History

      The Research Services Division was formed in 1972 at the creation of the Ministry of Industry and Tourism. It replaced the former Research Branch of the Department of Trade and Development. When it was created, it consisted of two branches: the Industrial and Marketing Studies Branch, and the Tourism and Recreation Studies Branch.

      In 1974, the division disappeared. The two branches of the division were divided into three: The Industrial Research Branch of the Division of Industry, the Tourism Research Branch of the Division of Tourism and the Trade Research Branch of the Division of Trade.
