Drees II (15 March 1951 - 2 September 1952) was a Dutch cabinet under PM Willem Drees that consisted of ministers of PvdA, KVP, CHU, VVD and one independent minister. It was a continuation of Drees I after issues over the policy concerning New Guinea led to the fall of the cabinet. However, this did not lead to new elections. The new formation was started by an informateur, which was a new phenomenon.
The New Guinea issue was consequently 'put in the freezer' and the focus shifted to social-economic issues.
A major new law was the unemployment law.
In 1951 the Netherlands became one of the founding members of the European Coal and Steel Community.
