Information About

Ministry Of Internal Affairs

In countries with a Federal constitution, an interior minister will often be found at both the federal and state levels. Similarly, Autonomous Entities and Dependent Territories may also have interior ministers; an example is Hong Kong (a Special Administrative Region of the People's Republic Of China ), which has a Secretary For Security .

The equivalent departments in the United States are the Department Of Homeland Security and the Department Of Justice ; before the Department of Homeland Security was formed, many of its duties were the responsibility of the Department of Justice. The U.S. Department Of The Interior is primarily concerned with managing Public Lands owned by the federal government, mainly the administration of Natural Resources such as parks and wildlife.
