History[edit]

Before 1911, the Prime Minister had no department of his own as such. The Prime Minister was concurrently the Minister for External Affairs, and used the services of the Department of External Affairs.

On 1 July 1911, the Prime Minister's Department was created.^[3]

On 11 March 1968, a separate Department of the Cabinet Office was created.^[4]

On 12 March 1971, these two departments were merged to create the Department of the Prime Minister and Cabinet.
