    History

    Small Business, Services and Capital Projects was created in November 1986 within the Ontario Ministry of Industry, Trade and Technology. It consisted initially of the Small Business Branch, the Business Development Branch, and the Service Sector Secretariat. The Small Business Branch and the Business Development Branch formerly belonged to the Industry Division; the secretariat was a new agency.

    In 1990, Small Business, Services and Capital Projects ceased to exist. The Small Business Branch was transferred directly to the Office of the Deputy Minister, while the Service Sector Secretariat was disbanded. The Business Development Branch also seems to have been dissolved, perhaps absorbed by the Domestic Industry Support Branch.
