Directorate General/General Directorate for Appraisal/Rating and Measurement/Gauging


Explanation:
These are some of the accepted translations of the terms in the title. This would normally be an interagency department or directorate and not an independent agency by itself although it could operate with some autonomy as the case may be:

General Drectorate for Rating/Appraising and Gauging sounds good to me.
