HICKMAN, Justice.

The only question we must answer in this case is whether the Department of Finance and Administration, an agency of the executive branch of government, and the Commissioner of Revenue, have a right of appeal to the circuit court from a decision of the Arkansas Merit Council Board which reinstated two fired employees. There is no such right of appeal for these parties and the circuit court was right in dismissing their petition for review.
