Marijnen (24 July 1963 - 14 April 1965) was the name given to a Dutch cabinet consisting of ministers from KVP, VVD, ARP and CHU, the same parties that formed the previous cabinet De Quay and can be seen as a continuation of that cabinet.

The natural gas reserves, recently found in Slochteren were a considerable boost for the economy. This, combined with labour shortage led to a rise in wages and the attraction of foreign workers. Despite this being the second cabinet without socialist PvdA, the building up of a welfare state, that was started after World War II, continued with the introduction of minimum wages in 1964 and the national health service (ziekenfondswet).

In 1965, measures were taken against commercial television stations transmitting from the North Sea. The cabinet finally fell over the issue if commercial tv should be allowed in the Netherlands.
