The Halivar ministry is the thirty-eighth and current government of the Commonwealth of Estmere. It was formed on 3 June 2021, following the 2021 election and its investiture by Parliament. It is headed by Zoe Halivar as Prime Minister, and consists of 23 members, of which 5 of are non-voting members. This figure only includes Secretaries of State and ministers who attend cabinet meetings, it does not include ministers who do not attend.
Halivar boasted that her ministry was "a reflection of modern-day Estmere", arguing that the ministers attending cabinet were representative of Estmerish society. When it was sworn in, it made several historic firsts; it was the first gender-balanced cabinet in Estmerish history, with 11 men and 11 women, and the first to appoint a minister who identifies outside of the gender binary and as transgender. It broke several records for inclusivity, with ministers 19 who attended comprehensives, 6 who were considered visible minorities, and 3 who were LGBT+.
The Progressive Social Democrats also claimed this was a "cabinet of experts", and that each minister was qualified in their field, but this has been subject to scrutiny and some of the qualifications in question are only tangentally related to their office.
