The Office of French Services (OFS), under the auspices of the Ministry of Government Modernization and Service Delivery, acts as the key point of contact in the provincial government regarding French Language services and Francophone affairs. It collaborates with departments to increase their capacity to offer services to the public in French and to promote dialogue and partnerships with the Francophone and Acadian community in Newfoundland and Labrador.
The French Language Services Policy was adopted in 2015 by the Treasury Board. The objective of this policy is to ensure a consistent and coordinated approach to service delivery in French throughout the provincial government. It is administered by the OFS.
The OFS supports the minister responsible for Francophone affairs. It also coordinates and administers the implementation of the Canada–Newfoundland and Labrador Agreement on French Language Services, which was renewed until the end of fiscal year 2027–2028.
