Your question did not mention which target language you would like for "zuständig", so I will answer it for English. Maybe that will help. "The ministries responsible/concerned should have the authority to appoint ..." or "the ministries concerned should be responsible for the appointment of ..." [email protected]

Comment: "Thank you very much for your answer. Actually, the most acceptable answer for Ger.: "zuständig" (in my context, at least) would be "competent" - like in "competent authorites". Anyway, thanks a lot again.
Regards,
Senta Setinc"
