In 1978 the Community Recreation Council became the Department of Youth, Sport and Recreation. Its objectives were to encourage participation in recreation, assist in provision of recreational facilities and sponsor and promote programmes for leaders, coaches etc, and to facilitate cooperation between government and non-government organisations. The Department's other objectives were to provide a service to youth and youth-related organisations providing a community development programme for young people and their families, assist in development of voluntary youth agencies, assist in cooperation of government and non-government agencies to improve communication with young people, parents, etc. In 1983 the Youth Task Force recommended the formation of the Youth Affairs Bureau which came into being in 1985 and consequently the Department became athe Department for Sport and Recreation.
