The Wran ministry (1980–1981) or Third Wran ministry was the 73rd ministry of the
Labor Party
. It was the third of eight consecutive occasions when Wran was Premier.
Background
Wran had been elected to the
Leader of Labor Party and Leader of the Opposition from 3 December 1973 and became Premier following a narrow one seat victory at the 1976 election.[4]
Labor retained government at the 1978 election in a landslide victory, popularly known as the "Wranslide", with a majority of 14 seats in the Legislative Assembly and four seats in the Legislative Council.
The reconfiguration of the ministry was triggered by the resignation of former Premier Jack Renshaw.
Composition of ministry
The ministry covers the period from 29 February 1980 until 2 October 1981 when the Wran–led Labor Party was re-elected at the 1981 election, and the Fourth Wran ministry was formed.[5]
Ministers are members of the Legislative Assembly unless otherwise noted.
