Ministerial Order/Decree


Explanation:
I rarely see 'Ministerial Ordinance' in English. I usually translate it as 'Ministerial Order'. It can also have the force of a decree.

Frequency on Google in English (using quote marks to narrow the search):
"Ministerial Order"= 561,000
"Ministerial Decree" = 354,000
"Ministerial Ordinance"= 76,900
