Portuguese term or phrase: Secretário de Estado Adjunto e do Desporto
I'm having some trouble figuring out just what this might be in English. I thouth a "secretário de estado adjunto" would be a "deputy secretary of state", but in this case the "adjunto" seems to refer to a function relating to the minister (because they call it "adjunto E do desporto").
I found "Assistant Secretary of State" - could this be it?
Thanks for all the help you can give!
