In its second regular meeting of the 28th of November 2012 the transitional Council of Ministers had devolved the Antiquities Department's assets and terms of reference to the Ministry of Culture and Civil Society. The Council of Ministers had also dissolved the General Board for Tourism and Antiquities (الهيئة العامة للسياحة والآثار) and devolved all its assets and functions to the newly created Ministry of Tourism.
