History edit

The Ministry for the Monarchy's Joint Internal Affairs - unofficially called the "Joint Ministry of the Interior" - was established by the Royal proclamation of 16 October 1855.[1] Following this, a number of institutions from the Ministry of Finance was transferred to the ministry, including the Postal Service, and the Colonial Central Board.[1][2] From the Ministry of the Interior, the new ministry took over cases such as citizenship cases.[1]

The ministry was abolished by Royal proclamation of 1 August 1858, and all its resources were placed under Ministry of Finance.[1]
