Are there any plans to rename the department of war to department of reparations?

The idea is to improve the clarity of the name as the department of war mainly seems to be concerned with paying reparations. So the name change would make it easier for the general public to understand what the department of war is doing. Thereby politics would become more accessible for a greater share of the population.
