Reid Ministry
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The Reid Ministry was the fourth Australian Commonwealth ministry, and ran from 18 August 1904 to 5 July 1905.
| Portfolio | Minister |
|---|---|
| Prime Minister and Minister for External Affairs | Rt Hon George Reid, KC MP |
| Treasurer | Rt Hon Sir George Turner, KCMG |
| Attorney-General | Senator Hon Sir Josiah Symon, KCMG KC |
| Minister for Home Affairs | Hon Dugald Thompson, MP |
| Minister for Trade and Customs | Hon Allan McLean, MP |
| Minister for Defence | Hon James McCay, MP |
| Postmaster-General | Hon Sydney Smith, MP |
| Vice-President of the Executive Council | Senator Hon George Drake |
McLean, Turner, McCay and Drake were conservative Protectionist Party members. Their acceptance of office in Reid's ministry, although it had Alfred Deakin's tacit approval, effectively ended their connection with the Deakinite organisation.
