	BBC - Comedy - Guide - Yes Minister
		He enters office as Minister of Administrative Affairs with enthusiasm and ambition, determined to make his mark upon public life, but soon comes to realise that his hands are tied by complex bureaucratic regulations that seem both indecipherable and insurmountable.
		To the civil servant, one minister is just like the next, irrespective of his political persuasion: an unavoidable irritant who must not, at any cost, be allowed to run the country.
		That is the job of the civil servants, and it is his solemn duty to uphold the status quo and, at the same time, feather the bed of his kind by ensuring that few civil servants, if any, ever lose their jobs as a result of government actions.

	CATHOLIC ENCYCLOPEDIA: Minister
		Even before the Reformation the word minister was occasionally used in English to describe those of the clergy actually taking part in a function, or the celebrant as distinguished from the assistants, but it was not then used sine addito to designate an ecclesiastic.
		In the Book of Common Prayer the word minister occurs frequently in the sense of the officiant at a service, and in the thirty-second of the Canons Ecclesiastical (1603) we read "no bishop shall make a person deacon and minister both upon one day", where clearly minister stands as the equivalent of priest.
		The head of the Franciscan Order is known as the minister general, and the superior of the different provinces of the various branches is called minister provincial.
