Second Tuxworth Ministry

Second Tuxworth Ministry

The Second Tuxworth Ministry was the fourteenth ministry to come from the Northern Territory Legislative Assembly. It was sworn in on December 21, 1984, following a major reshuffle by newly appointed Chief Minister Ian Tuxworth. The new ministry saw significant changes to the roles of a number of key figures. Tuxworth took on the role of Treasurer, formerly held by Marshall Perron, with Perron becoming Attorney-General. Jim Robertson, the former Attorney-General, became Minister for Health, and Daryl Manzie took on Robertson's other former portfolio as Minister for Transport and Works. The new ministry also saw the appointment of two new ministers: Barry Coulter and future Chief Minister Stephen Hatton, and the axing of one minister, former housing and conservation minister Noel Padgham-Purich. It operated until August 19, 1985, when a further ministerial reshuffle took place.
