# Ministry of the Interior and Public Security (Chile)

The Ministry of the Interior and Public Security (Spanish: Ministerio del Interior y Seguridad Pública) is the cabinet-level office responsible for home affairs in Chile. It is tasked with "maintaining public order, security and social peace" within the country. The ministry is also responsible for planning, directing, coordinating, executing, controlling, and informing the domestic policies formulated by the President of Chile. As the authority in charge of local government, the minister supervises all non-elected regional authorities.
Álvaro Elizalde has served as Minister of the Interior and Public Security since March 4, 2025. His Undersecretary of the Interior is Luis Cordero Vega, the Undersecretary of Regional Development is Francisca Perales Flores, and the Undersecretary of Crime Prevention is Carolina Leitao.
In the absence of the president of Chile (due to travel, death, or other impediment), the Minister of the Interior assumes the role of 'vice president.' However, this is not a true vice-presidential position but rather a designated acting president role, as the post of Vice President of Chile has not existed since 1833.

## History

During the first days of the independence movements, the senior "secretary" of the respective Junta functioned as the Secretary of Government. The office was officially established on October 27, 1812, when it was one of the two secretariats created by the Constitutional Norms approved on that date. It was initially named the Secretariat of the Interior. It was abolished in 1814 by the Spanish authorities when, after the Battle of Rancagua, they reasserted royal power.
In 1818, after independence, the secretariat was re-established, but this time as the Ministry of Government (1817–18), later renamed the Ministry of the Interior and Foreign Affairs (1829–71). During this period, its functions typically encompassed the future Ministry of Foreign Affairs, which was separated as an independent government administration in 1871. This ministry has undergone several reorganizations throughout its long history, reflected in its various names:
* Ministry of Government (1817–18)
* Ministry of Government and Foreign Affairs (1818–29)
* Ministry of the Interior and Foreign Affairs (1829–71)
* Ministry of the Interior (1871–2011)
* Ministry of the Interior and Public Security (2011–present)
The role of chief of government was unofficially assumed by the Minister of the Interior and Public Security (1891–1925).
