History
The Office of Legal Services was established on the creation of the new Ministry in April 1972 from some staff of the Legal Services Branch in the former Dept. of Revenue and solicitors of the Law Branch in the old Dept. of Municipal Affairs. It was sometimes known as the Legal Services Branch.
It was divided into sub-units which were concerned with the specific program areas dealt with by the Ministry, including municipal affairs and financial management.
The office was split in 1978 with the division of the Ministry into the Ministry of Treasury and Economics and the Ministry of Intergovernmental Affairs, each of which established an Office of Legal Services.
