Administrative / biographical background

The primary responsibilities of the Establishments Division were to advise the board on major questions of departmental and branch structure; to keep the department properly staffed, housed and equipped to do its job; and to ensure that arrangements in the branches for organising the work and for training and managing the staff were well devised and were working as they should. The Establishments Division formed part of the Secretaries' Office until 1975 when a major reorganization took place within the Department and Establishments Division was absorbed into the newly created Management Divisions.
