Ministers play a key role in the governance of Crown entities and are responsible to the House for overseeing and managing the Crown's interests in, and relationships with, the Crown entities in their portfolios. This State Services Commission guide, published in September 2006, provides Ministers with information to support their engagement with Crown entities. It should be read in conjunction with Cabinet Office circular CO (06) 5 Ministers' Roles and Responsibilities in Relation to Crown Entities.
