    History

    The Administrative Services Branch was established within the Ontario Ministry of Natural Resources at the time of the Ministry's creation in 1972. The Branch replaced the Operations Branch of the former Department of Lands and Forests.

    The Branch initially formed part of the Ministry's Finance and Administration Division. It later formed part of the Administration Division (1979-1990) and the Corporate Services Division (1990-1992). The Branch was renamed the Administrative Management Branch in 1989.

    In 1992, the Administrative Services Branch ceased to exist; its responsibilities were divided between the Finance and Administration Branch (then known as the Finance and Administrative Policy Branch) and the Central Services Branch.
