I advise the Senate that, following the election held on 21 May 2022, in which the Australian Labor Party was elected to government, the Governor-General commissioned the Prime Minister to form a government. Ministers and assistant ministers were appointed on 1 June 2022. For the information of senators, I table a list of the full ministry, which includes representation arrangements.

I also wish to inform the Senate that I have been appointed as Leader of the Government in the Senate and Senator Farrell has been appointed as the Deputy Leader of the Government in the Senate. Senator Gallagher has been appointed as Manager of Government Business in the Senate and Senator Chisholm will serve as the Deputy Manager of Government Business in the Senate. I also advise that Senator Urquhart has been elected as the Chief Government Whip in the Senate and Senators Ciccone and Pratt have both been elected as deputy government whips in the Senate. I seek leave to have the ministry list incorporated into Hansard.

Leave granted.
