Defunct Government Departments quiz
The challenge today is to identify the missing words from these former Government Departments. The missing words have the same number of letters as the Xs. I have indicated the years they were operative which may give a clue to some. Plenty of opportunity to guess if you don’t know. No use of reference material or the internet of course to ensure fair play. Good luck.
REMEMBER - NO POSTS instead you PM me with your guesses any time up to midnight tonight. If possible, please wait until you've completed all the guesses you want to make to avoid too many PMs and to make my job easier. So no hurry and it doesn't matter when you submit the answers because I'll be judging them solely on who has the most correct - and in the event of two or more being level it will be a tie. I hope this is clear and good luck. Tomorrow I’ll post the names of the top entries.
