Ministry of State

A Ministry of State is a government department led by a Minister responsible for specific areas of public policy, government function, or public service. It typically falls under the larger framework of a government, such as a national or regional administration. Ministries of State oversee various sectors, including health, education, foreign affairs, and economic development, carrying out government policies and programs. The Minister of State often reports directly to a higher-ranking official, like a Prime Minister, and plays a key role in shaping and implementing laws and regulations within their jurisdiction.
