Single short name (word) should be used when it makes sense to establish the
identity of the agency (eg. immigration, customs, statistics, tourism, etc.)
provided such name is not a common/generic name which is shared by more
than one agency. Such a short name is less likely to be impacted by change of
Government machinery (e.g. Ministries). However if the short name is
common for more than one agency (e.g. health, education, labour, etc.) the
agency type (Min, Dept, etc) should be suffixed/prefixed with the domain
name. e.g. labourdept.gov.lk, labourmin.gov.lk .
03020502:
Abbreviations could be used when they are easy to remember (moe, mof,
mod, mia etc). This is more appropriate for agencies with permanent existence
(e.g. departments)
03020503:
Prefix or suffix D or M could be used to denote Department or Ministry and
letter “O” could be inserted to denote “Of” within an abbreviation to make it
more memorisable. e.g. moe.gov.lk for Ministry of Education.
