Cutting of the department

In the second interim government of East Timor , an office of state secretary was introduced for the first time specifically for the management of mineral resources. In 2005 a minister was entrusted with this position after the department was separated from the economic department. Deputy ministers and state secretaries were subordinate to them. In the Seventh Government , responsibilities for oil and other mineral resources were divided between two ministers.
