Draft. Departments are derived from the Administrative Arrangements (Minns Ministry—Administration of Acts) Order 2023 (which Minister administers each Act) and the Administrative Arrangements (Public Service agencies and Ministers) Order 2023 (which department serves each Minister). Where a Minister serves several departments we assign one primary department by hand. Acts administered jointly by Ministers in different departments are counted under each department, so department figures add up to more than the overall total. Regulations, other statutory instruments and EPIs are counted once, under the department of the lead (first-listed) Minister for the Act they are made under.
