Explanation:
In the United Kingdom, a secretary of state is a cabinet minister in charge of a government department (though not all departments are headed by a Secretary of State, e.g. HM Treasury is headed by the Chancellor of the Exchequer). There is in theory only one office of Secretary of State, and legislation generally refers only to "the Secretary of State". In practice, there are a number of Secretaries of State, each of whom can exercise the functions of the Secretary of State, and formally titled "Her Majesty's Principal Secretary of State for ...". These positions can be created without primary legislation.

agree  Galya Ivanova (X): brava! :) http://bg.wikipedia.org/wiki/Държавен_секретар_на_САЩ - тук обясняват, че еквивалентът в България е Министър на Външните Работи, но в случая на Англия е Държавен Секретар. http://new.csd.bg/jri/resources/eng-local.html
