Fourth Perron Ministry

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

The Fourth Perron Ministry was the 25th ministry to come from the Northern Territory Legislative Assembly. It was sworn in on November 13, 1990 after Perron undertook a reshuffle of the previous ministry. The central change of the reshuffle was the promotion to the ministry of rising star and future Chief Minister Shane Stone with responsibilities for education and employment. It also saw the promotion of another new minister, Max Ortmann as Minister for Lands and Housing, a portfolio previously held by Daryl Manzie. The new ministry also saw a number of portfolio changes among the existing members, with Stephen Hatton losing the health portfolio to Stephen Hatton and the conservation portfolio to Mike Reed, instead taking the industries and development portfolio from Barry Coulter. It operated until November 29, 1992, when Perron again reshuffled his ministry.
