About Government Agencies 

A government or state agency, often known as an appointed commission, is a permanent or semi-permanent government institution in charge of overseeing and administering specified responsibilities, such as administration.

There are many different types of agencies. A government agency is usually distinguished from a department or ministry, as well as other sorts of public bodies established by government, notwithstanding differences in usage.

Because different sorts of organisations (such as commissions) are most typically formed in an advising role, the functions of an agency are normally executive in nature this distinction is often blurred in reality, but it is not allowed.

Agencies can be established by legislation or by executive powers. The autonomy, independence, and accountability of government agencies also vary widely.
