Talk:Ministers of the South African Government

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

I know that the various govt. departments are headed by ministers, but I've never heard anyone refer to the "ministry of foreign affairs" or the "ministry of agriculture". It's always the department of whatever. Unless someone has a good cite, I'm going to rename the "ministries" to "departments". ManicParroT 21:59, 24 March 2007 (UTC)

support True, it's called departments. Department of Home Affairs, Department of Education, etc. A ministry usually has to do with religious things. ► Adriaan90 ( Talk ♥ Contribs ) ♪♫ 11:45, 25 March 2007 (UTC)
