      Historique

      The Old Age Assistance and Blind Persons' Allowances Branch was established within the Ontario Department of Public Welfare in 1952. The branch continued some of the functions of the Old Age Pensions Commission of Ontario, which ceased to exist on December 31, 1951. With this change, a federal programme to provide pensions to Canadian citizens 70 years of age and over was established. The Old Age Assistance and Blind Persons' Allowances Branch, in turn, ensured assistance to those 65-70 years of age.

      In 1957, the branch was merged with the Mothers' Allowances Branch, the Child Welfare Branch, and the Disabled Persons' Allowances Branch to form the Welfare Allowances Branch of the Department of Public Welfare.
