    The Organizational Planning Branch (briefly known as the Organizational Development Branch) was formed in the fall of 1993 as part of the Corporate Services and Organizational Planning Division of the Ministry of Culture, Tourism and Recreation. In 1995 the Branch was moved to the new Ministry of Citizenship, Culture and Recreation as part of the Corporate Services Division (renamed the Regional and Corporate Services Division in 1996).
