History
The Programs and Estimates Division was created in the Treasury Board in 1965. It was first called the Program Analysis Branch, and was renamed the Programs and Estimates Division in 1967.
When the Treasury Board was replaced with the Management Board of Cabinet in 1971, the Division became part of the Management Board Secretariat.
Over the years, the Division was divided into branches responsible for specific Ministries or government agencies, estimates policy, and divisional services. From 1975 to 1977, the Division also included the Office of the Coordinator on Bilingualism.
The Programs and Estimates Division ceased to exist in 1991, and its responsibilities were transferred to the Expenditure Management Division (later Treasury Division) of the Ministry of Treasury and Economics.
