The Warwick Caretaker Ministry was formed on the 24 August 2024 following the conclusion of the August 2024 General Election, which resulted in a Hung Parliament. While negotiations between the two main coalitions - the Unionist-Workers Front and the Heron Party (the latter supported by an independent candidate), the former Warwick Government remained in power as a caretaker Government. It dissolved on the 27 August 2024, following the resignation of the Duke of Warwick as Prime Minister.
