It under went numerous name changes throughout its complicated history with responsibility for sea transportation, known as the Department of the Director of Transports from 1890. According to official sources it was temporarily part of the responsibility of the Ministry of Shipping as its Transport Department from (1917-1921) though still under the auspice of the Admiralty. It was renamed the Sea Transport Department of the Board of Trade from (1921-1941). It then moved then back to the Ministry of Shipping from (1941-1946). Responsibility for naval transportation then became part of the Ministry of War Transport as its Sea Transport Department until 1946 still with co-responsibility with the Admiralty. It continued with the Ministry of Shipping until 1967 when it was renamed the Sea Transport Division and in 1970 It was transferred under the control of the Board of Trade as the Sea Transport Branch. The branch was administered by the Director of Sea Transport.[1] HistoryThe origins of the branch began with the Transport Board established in 1686. In 1817 the Transport Board was itself abolished and its responsibilities were then separated between the Navy Board who created its own Transport Branch and the Victualling Board which set up its own Transport Service. In 1832 both the navy and victualling boards were abolished and responsibility for the provision of transport passed to the new Department of the Comptroller of Victualling and Transport Services.[2] In 1862 the Department of the Comptroller of Victualling and Transport Services role was separated leading to the creation of a separate Transport Department. By 1890 it was renamed as the Department of the Director of Transports.[3] In 1917 the department was temporarily absorbed into the Ministry of Shipping until 1921 when the ministry was abolished. During the previous period the Director of Transports was seconded by the Admiralty to the Ministry of Shipping as its representative restyled as the Director of Transport and Shipping under the Shipping Controller.[4][5][6] After the first world war the Transport Department was made part of the Board of Trade's, Mercantile Marine Department as its Sea Transport Department. In order to deliver the requirements for the provision of naval transportation services for the Admiralty its Directors of the Transport were given joint roles he was appointed head of the Admiralty Department and made an officer of the Board of Trade.[7][8] The Sea Transport Department remained as part of the Mercantile Marine Department of Board of Trade until 1941. In 1939 the Ministry of Shipping was reconstituted and in May 1941 it was amalgamated with Ministry of Transport to form the Ministry of War Transport it assumed responsibility for the Sea Transport Department until May 1946.[9] The Ministry of Transport was reestablished in May 1946 at the Sea Transport Department remained a part of the Ministry of Transport under the auspice of Admiralty as stated in official documents until March 1968 when it was renamed the Sea Transport Division. In 1970 it moved back to the Board of Trade where it was renamed as the Sea Transport Branch. [10][11].
