The Cahill ministry (1959) or Fourth Cahill ministry was the 58th ministry of the New South Wales Government, and was led by the 29th Premier, the Honourable Joe Cahill, MLA, of the Australian Labor Party. The ministry was the fourth and final of four consecutive occasions when the Government was led by Cahill, as Premier. Cahill was first elected to the New South Wales Legislative Assembly in 1925 and served up until 1932, representing the seats of St George and Arncliffe before being defeated. He was re-elected in 1935, again representing Arncliffe, and then represented Cook's River between 1941 and 1959. Having served continuously as Secretary for Public Works in the first, second, and third ministries of Jim McGirr, when Deputy Premier Jack Baddeley resigned, Cahill was appointed as McGirr's deputy on 21 September 1949. McGirr resigned as Premier several years later, on 2 April 1952, and Cahill was elected as Labor Leader and became Premier. Cahill led Labor to victory at the 1953, 1956, and 1959 state elections. This ministry covers the period from 1 April when Cahill won the 1959 state election, until 28 October 1959. On 22 October 1959 Cahill, a heavy smoker, died at Sydney Hospital of a myocardial infarction while still serving as Premier. Cahill's deputy, the Hon. Bob Heffron, MLA succeeded Cahill as Premier. ==Composition of ministry== The composition of the ministry was announced by Premier Cahill following the 1959 state election on 1 April 1959, and covers the period up until 28 October 1959, when the ministry was reconfigured as the First Heffron ministry. Ministers are listed in order of seniority and in most cases, serve the full term of this ministry. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Cahill ministry (1959)」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
