The Third Colijn cabinet was the cabinet of the Netherlands from 31 July 1935 until 24 June 1937. The cabinet was formed by the Roman Catholic State Party (RKSP), Anti-Revolutionary Party (ARP), Christian Historical Union (CHU), Liberal State Party (LSP) and the Free-thinking Democratic League (VDB) after the resignation of the Second Colijn cabinet on 23 July 1935. The centre-right cabinet was a majority government in the House of Representatives and was a continuation of the previous Colijn II cabinet. It was the third of five cabinets of Hendrikus Colijn, the Leader of the Anti-Revolutionary Party as chairman of the Council of Ministers.[1][2][3][4][5]
