The Second Andrews ministry was the 70th ministry of the Government of Victoria. The Labor government, led by Premier Daniel Andrews and Deputy Premier James Merlino, was officially sworn in on 29 November 2018, following the party's second consecutive victory at the 2018 state election, which was held on 24 November 2018.[1]
At the time of its formation, the ministry consisted of 22 ministers, eleven of whom were women, making it the first cabinet in Victoria's history to reach gender parity.[2] To accommodate this change Philip Dalidakis was removed from his cabinet position. However, his work as a minister was praised by Andrews.[3] Following the resignation of Gavin Jennings and the appointment of Ros Spence on 23 March 2020, the Cabinet became majority female.
The Second Andrews ministry succeeded the First Andrews ministry, and was succeeded by the Third Andrews ministry.
