Line Ministries
Glossary of Capital Budgeting and Infrastructure Governance, published by the Organisation for Economic Co-operation and Development (OECD) in 2018, defines Line Ministries as: ‘Central government organisations responsible for designing and implementing policies in line with wider Government policies, and for the direction of Agencies/Executive Units under their authority. Line Ministries may be called Departments in some countries, and have responsibility for their own budget portfolios although they must report to CBAs and are subject to their review.’
