First Reynolds ministry
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The First Reynolds ministry was the 5th ministry of the Government of South Australia, led by Thomas Reynolds. It commenced on 9 May 1860, following Reynolds' defeat of the Hanson ministry on a confidence vote in the House of Assembly. The ministry was defeated in May 1861, but Reynolds' opponents were unable to form a government, and he formed the reconstituted Second Reynolds ministry on 20 May 1861.[1][2][3][4][5]
