The Ministry of Social Affairs is organised by Decree n°75/723 of November 1975. Madam Delphine TSANGA, economist, is at the Head of this ministerial department, there are central and external services. There were two Departments: Private Assistance Department and Social Development Department.

A small innovation intervenes in 1981, with Decree n°81/295 of July 23, creating within the Ministry of Social Affairs, a Women Empowerment and Social Defence Service. NATIONAL NEW DEAL AND SOCIAL SERVICE Social Service, corollary to the humanity history and social exclusion being a secular phenomenon to all societies, it was necessary for Cameroon to integrally fight social problems and replace man at the centre of every sustainable development process. The President of the Republic, His Excellency Mister Paul BIYA made solidarity a duty behind the social development strategy indispensable to the opening and blooming of a modern Cameroonian society. Thus, in his book Communal Liberalism published in 1987, he opportunely underlines that:" modern Cameroonian society, which we call the emergence and development, would be a giant with feet of clay if it is not fed too many and enriching its traditional values. One of these core values is the sense of community here presented as a duty of solidarity "this political vision is translated by the putting in place of a certain number of reference tools for it to be operational such as Strategic Document for Poverty Reduction and its subsequent evolutions which shall result in the projection of the socio-economic development under the form of vision at horizon2035, the Strategic Document for Growth and Employment and other related projects and programmes. As acts to mark the evolution of this new deal of Social Service, 1984 Madam Rose ZANG NGUELE is the Minister of Social Affairs. Following decree n°88/772 of May 16, 1988 to organise the Government, the Ministry of Social and Women Affairs is created and Madam YAOU AISSATOU is in charge of that ministry till 1997. In 1992, ENAM opens the training of Social Service personnel, through the cycle of Inspectors of Social Affairs by an order. Decree n°95/100 of June 9, 1995 reorganises the Ministry of Social Affairs and Women Condition. It was the social promotion of woman and child without any discrimination and in the perfect guaranty of the equality of rights in the politic, socio-educative, and cultural domain. Decree n°97/207 of December 7, 1997 forming a new government creates the Ministry of Social Affairs (MINAS) on one hand and the Ministry of Women Affairs (MINCOF), on the other hand.

By assuring the preparation and implementation of the laws and regulations and the maintenance of public order, the MINATD acts as a guarantor public liberties- associations and political organizations; religious organizations; non-profit movements, organizations and associations. Performing as a guarantor of the state powers, the MINATD oversees the activities of regional and local authorities. The MINATD is also in charge of preventing and managing the risks related to natural disasters. Regional governmentOriginality, the Republic of Cameroon was divided into provinces. The appellation "regions" came with the Amendment of the Constitution of 1996. The regions are the primary subdivisions in Cameroon. Here are the ten regions of Cameroon: Adamawa, Center, East, Far North, North-West, West, South, South-West,Littoral and North . Considering the fact that the Law No. 96-06 of 18th January 1996 did not yet came into force, a region is under the authority of a Governor appointed by Presidential Decree meaning that the governor represents the authority of the President of the Republic and implicitly upholds the authority of the State in the province/region where he is appointed. Each Ministers assigns to each region a competent provincial delegate in charge of implementing the policy of the state in his province within the framework of the responsibility assigned to their respective Ministerial department. For example, the Minister of Public Health appoints to each province a Delegate in charge of Public Health to coordinate the duty assigned to the Ministry of Public Health at the regional level.[5] It is the same for all the Ministerial departments. With the collaboration of provincial delegates, the governor covers the general administration and co-ordination of the work of the civil service in the province, with the exception of those aspects that fall within the remit of the Minister for justice. And we also have to notice that all local government officials are employees of the central government’s Ministry of Territorial Administration, from which local governments also get most of their budgets. As the country is subdivided into regions, the regions are subdivided into departments. Department administrationThere are 58 departments in Cameroon. As in the French model, the capital of a department is called "prefecture" (préfecture in the French language). A department is under the authority of a Prefect (in French préfet) appointed by Presidential decree meaning that the prefect upholds both the authority of the State and implicitly the authority of the region at the local level. Each Ministerial department appoints to each department a departmental delegate in charge of preparing and implementing the policy of the state in his department within the framework of their respective agenda. For example, the Minister of Secondary Education appoints to each department a delegate in charge of secondary education to coordinate the duty assigned to the Ministry of Secondary Education at the local level.[6] District administrationWe have to acknowledge the fact that the French's word arrondissement is translated "district" in English pose a problem in the context of the subdivisions in Cameroon. Departments are subdivided in "arrondissements", and "arrondissements" are further subdivided in districts. As it is the case for the French's administrative division, the capital of an arrondissement is a sub prefecture (translate in French sous-préfecture). An arrondissement is under the authority of a sub-prefect (translate sous-préfet in the French language) who upheld the authority of the state in the arrondissement.
