The Ministry of Government Services is responsible for one of the longest list of statutes in the Ontario government. Our legislations:
- Strengthen consumer protection
- Enhance the delivery of public services
- Modernize government.
Changes to many of our legislations have been adopted recently to help the ministry address the challenges and opportunities of the 21st century.
