intragovernmental

Between government agencies

Intragovernmental describes transactions, relationships, or operations occurring within a single government rather than between separate governments.

The term appears most often in financial contexts: intragovernmental debt is money one government agency owes another, such as when the U.S.

Treasury borrows from Social Security trust funds.

Compare with intergovernmental, which involves multiple governments.
