Administrative history
The Naval Staff began informal meetings in 1940 but was officially established by Naval Order in 1943. The Staff was to consider Naval Policy in detail and submit its proposals to the Naval Board in their complete form. It ceased to operate as a body in 1964 upon integration of the three Canadian forces.
