Notes
Following the resignation of Charles J. Haughey from Office, Albert Reynolds was appointed Taoiseach and the Fianna Fáil/Progressive Democrats coalition continued in Government.
Following a dispute, the Progressive Democrat Ministers (O'Malley and Molloy) resigned in November, 1992. The Government lost a subsequent "confidence" vote in the Dáil and a General Election was called.
Padraig Flynn resigned as Minister (4.1.93) to become Ireland's EC Commissioner (6.1.1993.)
