Ministries (Executive branch) - Overview

During the first term of President Álvaro Uribe, beginning in 2002, ministries were restructured. The President closed and merged ministries to reduce bureaucracy while assigning duties of suppressed ministries to Administrative Departments (i.e. the DAS, which is a form of an Administrative Department).
Here's a list of the current 13 Ministries of the Executive Branch of Colomba's government (in the correct Order of Precedence):
- Ministerio de Interior y de Justicia (Ministry of the Interior and Justice, official website at www.mij.gov.co) - Merging of Ministerio del Interior (Ministry of Interior) and Ministerio de Justicia (Ministry of Justice) to create a unified Ministry. (Separated into two ministries in 2011. See below for details. Ed.)
- Ministerio de Relaciones Exteriores (Ministry of Foreign Affairs, official website at www.minrelext.gov.co).
- Ministerio de Hacienda y Crédito Público (Ministry of Finance and Public Credit, official website at www.minhacienda.gov.co)
- Ministerio de Defensa Nacional (Ministry of National Defense, official website at www.mindefensa.gov.co)
- Ministerio de Agricultura y Desarrollo Rural (Ministry of Agriculture and Rural Development, official website at www.minagricultura.gov.co)
- Ministerio de Protección Social (Ministry of Social Protection, official website at www.minproteccionsocial.gov.co) - Merging of Ministerio de Salud (Ministry of Health) and Ministerio del Trabajo (Ministry of Labor) to create a unified ministry
- Ministerio de Minas y Energía (Ministry of Mines and Energy, official website at www.minminas.gov.co)
- Ministerio de Comercio, Industria y Turismo (Ministry of Commerce, Industry and Tourism, official website at www.mincomercio.gov.co) - Renamed after absorbing several Departamentos Administrativos (Administrative Departments)
- Ministerio de Educación Nacional (Ministry of National Eduction, official website at www.mineducacion.gov.co)
- Ministerio de Ambiente, Vivienda y Desarrollo Territorial (Ministry of the Environment, Housing and Regional Development, official website at www.minambiente.gov.co) - Absorbed the Ministerio de Desarrollo (Ministry of Development)
- Ministerio de Comunicaciones (Ministry of Communications, official website at www.mincomunicaciones.gov.co)
