			Civil Service Functionaires are assigned to the [[SCCV Horizon]] to chiefly represent the Republic of Biesel's interests and liase on behalf of Republic citizens, though may also carry out extra functions depending on which government department they are with (but can still dabble in the responsibilities of other departments). As the Horizon is considered an important posting (and often a dangerous one, depending on the operation and by virtue of being in space), they may be accompanied by close protection officers from either the [[Republic Security & Law Enforcement#Biesel Security Services Bureau\|Biesel Security Services Bureau]], [[Tau_Ceti_Armed_Forces#Republic_Espatiers\|Republic Espatiers]], or their own hired private security.

			'''Notable Government Departments:'''
			* '''Department of Interior:''' The Department of Interior is responsible for domestic policy, public security (including policing and prosecution), immigration, and civil registration. It is therefore also the parent department of the [[Republic Security & Law Enforcement#Biesel Security Services Bureau\|Biesel Security Services Bureau]]. Functionaires from the Department of Interior aboard the Horizon perform duties typically expected of consular staff, such as temporary passport replacements for Republic citizens, visa renewals or modifications for non-citizens, and reporting instances of severe crimes conducted by Horizon crew to the BSSB.
			* '''Department of Arts, Culture and Sport:''' The Department of Arts, Culture and Sport (sometimes just the Department of Culture) is responsible for tourism, leisure and creative industries. Functionaires on the SCCV Horizon are expected to organise cultural appreciation events, observe Republic holidays and festivities and support citizens who feel out of touch with their home as a result of their spacebound work assignment. They are generally seen as upbeat chearleaders for the Republic of Biesel's multicultural environment.
			* '''Department of Veteran Affairs:''' The Department of Veteran Affairs is an entire government department dedicated to supporting reserve and veteran [[Tau Ceti Armed Forces]] personnel, and so naturally works close with the Department of Defence. Functionaires on the SCCV Horizon are expected to ensure TCAF veterans and reservists are treated well, are completing appropriate remote and physical training (in the case of reservists), and may also begin the initial stages of recruitment for the TCAF (both citizens and non-citizens interested in the TCAF immigration pathway) with the lure of its many benefits and high salaries.
			* '''Department of Economy, Finances and Industry:''' The Department of Economy, Finances and Industry (sometimes just the Department of Economy) is responsible for taxation and national funds. It is also responsible for regulating, developing, and establishing competition between the megacorporations. On the Horizon, functionaires will typically interact more with Command staff to find opportunities for the Republic of Biesel, Conglomerate, and its affiliate companies to work together on shared goals (eg. phoron surveying, exoplanet surveys), as well as ensuring that the Horizon's operations are in compliance with [[Republic Law]]. A more active player in major Horizon operations and expeditions.

			''This is not an exhaustive list of the department your functionaire may represent, but are the most sensible and engaging picks.''
