    History

    The Federal/Provincial Relations Branch (originally named the Federal/Provincial Planning Group) was established in April 1986, and was composed of two units: the Federal/Provincial Policy Unit, and the Federal/Provincial Operations Unit. It was part of the Planning and Development Division of the Ontario Ministry of Skills Development and was transferred later that same year, to the Policy and Development Division.

    In 1987, the name was changed to Federal/Provincial Relations Group. In 1990, the Policy and Development Division ceased to exist, and the Federal/Provincial Relations Group was transferred to the new Skills Development Division and renamed Federal/Provincial Relations Branch.

    Two new units, Strategic Planning and French Language, were added in 1990, both of which were moved out of the Branch the following year. The Community Resources Unit was transferred to the Branch in 1991.

    The Federal/Provincial Relations Branch was transferred to the Ontario Ministry of Education and Training in February 1993, and then to the Ontario Training and Adjustment Board (OTAB) in the fall of 1993. It ceased to exist in 1994.
