      History

      The Program Management and Estimates Division was created within the Management Board Secretariat in 1995, and assumed some of the functions of the defunct Treasury Division, Ministry of Finance.

      In addition to branches assigned to specific ministries and agencies, the Division included the Business Planning and Expenditure Management Branch and the Corporate Policy Branch. In 2004, the Corporate Policy Branch became part of the Strategic Policy Division, minus the Performance Measurement and Evaluation Unit which remained part of the Progam Management and Estimates Division.

      In 2005, the Management Board Secretariat ceased to exist. The Program Management and Estimates Division was merged with the Fiscal and Financial Policy Division of the Ministry of Finance to form the new Office of the Treasury Board, Ministry of Finance.
