O'Farrell Ministry

The O'Farrell ministry is the 93rd ministry of the Government of New South Wales, and is led by the 43rd Premier Barry O'Farrell.

The LiberalNational coalition ministry was formed following the defeat of the Keneally Labor government at the 2011 election. It was the first coalition ministry since the Greiner-Fahey-led coalition ministries of the late 1980s and early 1990s.

The ministry was sworn in on 3 April 2011 at Government House by the Lieutenant Governor, James Spigelman.[1] A few days earlier, on 28 March 2011, O’Farrell and his Deputy, Andrew Stoner were sworn in by Governor Marie Bashir, as Premier and Deputy Premier respectively at a ceremony held in the office of the Chief Secretary of New South Wales.[2]
