Government of Keating I.
The Keating I government ruled Australia from December 20, 1991 to March 24, 1993. The government was provided by the Labor Party .
Bob Hawke had been Prime Minister of a Labor Party government since November 3, 1980. A recession began in Australia in 1990/91. Paul Keating , deputy prime minister and treasury minister, challenged the prime minister on June 3, 1991, but failed to assert himself at Labor Caucus - the MPs and senators of the Lapor Party - and then resigned from his government offices. At the second attempt on December 20, 1991, however, Keating was able to prevail against Hawke, who then resigned. Keating became Prime Minister of the Laboratory Government. The general election of March 13, 1993 brought slight gains for the Labor Party, which won two seats and received 80 seats out of 148 in the House of Representatives . In the Senate Labor lost two seats and put 30 of 76 senators. Laboratory rule under Keating continued.
