Cabinet

[edit]

Støre's inaugural cabinet consisted of 19 ministers;[1] one fewer than the previous Solberg cabinet. It had eleven ministers from Labour and eight from Centre, reflecting the parties' numerical strength in Parliament.[2] The cabinet originally consisted of ten women and nine men - the third time in Norwegian history that a cabinet had a female majority. Two of the cabinet's members (Brenna and Vestre) were survivors of the 2011 Norway attacks.[3] Additionally, Minister of Justice Emilie Enger Mehl - aged 28 at the time of her appointment - became the youngest person ever to hold that position.[4]

October 2023 reshuffle

[edit]

A cabinet reshuffle was held on 16 October 2023. Anniken Huitfeldt resigned as Minister of Foreign Affairs and was succeeded by Minster of Climate and the Enviroment Espen Barth Eide, while Minister of Education Tonje Brenna replaced Marte Mjøs Persen as Minister of Labour and Social Inclusion. Eide and Brenna were succeeded in their respective posts by Andreas Bjelland Eriksen and Kari Nessa Nordtun. Erling Sande replaced Sigbjørn Gjelsvik as Minister of Local Government and Regional Development, and Cecilie Myrseth succeeded Bjørnar Skjæran as Minister of Fisheries and Ocean Policy. Additionally, the post of Minister of Digitalisation was re-established, to be filled by Karianne Tung, thereby increasing the number of ministers to 20.[5]
