Section 3 of the Public Service Management Act 1997 states that:

A Minister of the Government having charge of a Department shall, in accordance with the Ministers and Secretaries Acts, 1924 to 1995, be responsible for the performance of functions that are assigned to the Department pursuant to any of those Acts.

I am, therefore, responsible for the performance of functions that are assigned to the Department of Defence pursuant to the Ministers and Secretaries Acts.
