Fourth Barr ministry
The Fourth Barr Ministry is the 16th ministry of the Government of the Australian Capital Territory, led by Labor Chief Minister Andrew Barr and his deputy Yvette Berry. It was appointed on 7 November 2024 to replace the Third Barr Ministry, following the 2024 general election held two weeks earlier.
Despite forming a coalition government with Labor since 2012, on 6 November 2024, Greens leader Shane Rattenbury announced that his party would return to the crossbench, effectively dissolving the coalition. However, they agreed to guarantee supply in return for Labor adopting Green's policies. This allowed Labor to continue to form government, but as a minority government.
Following Labor's re-election at the 2024 general election, a new ministry was appointed on 7 November 2024.
On 1 July 2025, the position of Minister for Housing and New Suburbs, held by Yvette Berry, was renamed Minister for Homes, Homelessness and New Suburbs and the position of Minister for the Prevention of Family and Domestic Violence, held by Marisa Paterson, was renamed Minister for the Prevention of Domestic, Family and Sexual Violence.
