| Administrative / biographical background: |
Upon the creation of the Ministry of Social Security in 1968, the branches responsible for reciprocal agreements between overseas countries and related pension policies on overseas matters were transferred from Insurance Department C to Insurance Department A. In 1971, the responsible branches were reformed into the International Relations Division, which was later transferred to the Administration and Social Security Policy Group. In 1986 its status as a Division was downgraded to Branch level, and responsibilities for overseas matters (social security) were transferred to other areas of the department. |
