The Department of Devolution and Governmental Affairs (often referred to as D-GA), is the Sanctarian governmental department responsible for political reform, the civil service, intergovernmental issues, relationships between the federal government and the states, and the administration of elections and devolved power. The Department was created in 2018.
The Department is headquartered in the Old Episcopal Manor located in Government Square, the government district of Sanctus, in the same building as the Department of Justice.
The Department is led by the Secretary for Devolution and Governmental Affairs, who is nominated by the Chancellor, confirmed by the Senate, and appointed by the President. The Secretary is a member of the Cabinet. The current Secretary for Devolution and Governmental Affairs is Ben Jackson MP.
Organisation
The Department of Devolution and Governmental Affairs is headed by the Secretary of the Department of Devolution and Governmental Affairs, also known as the Secretary for Devolution and Governmental Affairs. The Secretary is aided by the senior civil servant in charge of the department, the Director-General. The Department itself is then split into various divisions or directorates, with each division headed by other senior civil servants, Directors, who report to both the Director-General and the Secretary of State. This is mirrored in all other government departments, with the only political staff being the Secretary themselves, or any other politician appointed to aide them. Civil servants throughout the department report to their superiors, who eventually report to the Director-General, who is then answerable to the Secretary. The Secretary in turn reports back to the Cabinet and, indeed, the Parliament.
