The Second Rudd Ministry (Labor) was the 68th ministry of the Government of Australia, led by Prime Minister Kevin Rudd. It succeeded the Second Gillard Ministry after a leadership spill within the Australian Labor Party that took place on 26 June 2013. Three members of the ministry were sworn in by Governor-General Quentin Bryce on 27 June 2013. These were Kevin Rudd, Prime Minister; Anthony Albanese, Deputy Prime Minister; and Chris Bowen, Treasurer.[1][2] The remainder of the ministry were sworn in on 1 July 2013.[3]
The Labor Party lost the general election held on 7 September 2013, paving the way for Coalition leader Tony Abbott. The ministry concluded on 18 September 2013 when the Abbott Ministry was sworn in.
