First Plätschisch Cabinet
The first Cabinet of Ian Plätschisch took office between July 29 and July 30 2018/XXXIX. Chaired by Prime Minister Ian Plätschisch, a former Distain and Interior Minister, it marked the first time since 2013 that a party was able to lead more than two governments in a row after taking over from the Third Da Schir Cabinet; Lüc da Schir announced he would not accept any post and enter a semi-retirement from national politics.
Unlike its predecessor, this Cabinet is a more marked departure from its previous iteration: for instance, the STUFF post, traditionally held by Moderate Radical ministers ever since the Da Dhi Cabinet, went to former Secretary of State Martì-Paìr Furxhéir, who last held the post fourteen years ago. Two other new Ministers will join Cabinet: Iac Marscheir, who briefly served as Finance Minister in the Second Da Schir Cabinet before pulling out for personal reasons, and Cresti Nouacastra-Läxhirescu, who debuts as Justice Minister. He will replace Viteu Marcianüs, who will abandon the post to serve solely as Distain, in a return to a more traditional arrangement where the Deputy Prime Minister does not manage another concurrent portfolio and focuses on legislative projects.
The government is projected to have a comfortable nominal Cosa majority of 64 (132-68). This is the highest in governments formed after Reunision, and just short of a 2/3 supermajority in the Cosa.
Changes in composition
Prime Minister Plätschisch resigned following the end of the last Clark of the 52nd Cosa to form a new political party, Awakening and Magnifying Passion. In his stead, Culture Minister Miestrâ Schivâ became interim Prime Minister. Upon the Free Democratic win in the following General Elections, she reshuffled the Cabinet on April 7th, creating the Schivâ Cabinet.
