The first Barvata ministry was formed following the Progress Party electoral victory in the 2019 general election, ousting the Principles from government after nearly fourteen years in opposition. Franklin Barvata was invited by King Lambertus VII to form a new administration. Upon office, Barvata was the youngest Progress prime minister for over 37 years, starting his term at 51 years old. The ministry dissolved and was replaced by the Second Barvata ministry following the 2021 Great general election.
History
Barvata reshuffled his cabinet on 27 August 2019; Nickolas Berinson, Rick Convaster, Stephanie Morlund and Bertha Penn all left the government. Edmund Stockman retired from cabinet and parliament in January 2020 and was replaced by Stephanie Goziro. Barvata reshuffled his cabinet again on 14 September 2020; Liona Bolshever, Katherine Jateman, Arthur Patrick-Johannes and Luther Dipoma all left the government. Nellie Hermin resigned from the cabinet in November 2019 after an argument with the prime minister surrounding the factionalisation of the Labour Party, who was shortly replaced by Arlin Klements.
The ministry began with a 910 seat majority in government. In October 2020 Barvata removed the whip from 6 Progress MPs who voted against the Anti Terrorism Bill, reducing their working majority to 904 seats[1].
