and what is it called?

Thanks, but it doesn't seem to give any information on who actually owns it. Is it privately owned or owned by the government?

Thanks.

Seems to imply that it is owned by the government without saying so explicitly.

it is a government department nominally under the Ministry of Finance.

As such, it is an arm of government (ie. it is the government when it comes to activities under its charter).

I guess all properties etc are nominally held by the state, again, under the auspices of the MOF.
