The Howard Government refers to the federal Executive Government of Australia led by Prime Minister John Howard between 11 March 1996 and 3 December 2007. It was made up of members of the LiberalNational Coalition, which won a majority of seats in the Australian House of Representatives at four successive elections. The Howard Government commenced following victory over the Keating Government at the 1996 federal election. It concluded with its defeat at the 2007 federal election by the Australian Labor Party, whose leader Kevin Rudd then formed the First Rudd Government. It was the second-longest government under a single Prime Minister, with the longest having been the second Menzies Government (1949–1966).
