History
The Trade Policy and Analysis Branch was formed in 1982 when the Ministry of Industry and Trade came into existence. It formed part of the Trade Division, and replaced the Trade Policy Branch of the former Ministry of Industry and Tourism. The branch was organized into a trade analysis section, a trade planning section, and a trade policy section.
In 1984, the Trade Policy and Analysis Branch ceased to exist. The functions of the branch were assumed by an expanded Policy Secretariat, which became known as the Planning and Priorities Secretariat.
