History#edit

The ministry is the successor of the old Ministry of Transport and Communications (Υπουργείο Μεταφορών και Επικοινωνιών), with which the public works portfolio of the Ministry for the Environment, Physical Planning and Public Works was merged on 7 October 2009. A further merger with the Ministry of Development and Competitiveness created the Ministry of Development, Competitiveness, Infrastructure, Transport and Networks on 21 June 2012, but this was reversed on 25 June 2013.
