This is a list of members of the government of the United Kingdom in office under the leadership of Spencer Perceval from 1809 to 1812. The Perceval ministry saw the advent of the Regency era, when King George III was formally deemed unfit to reign and his son ruled as his proxy as Prince Regent. Perceval was murdered in May 1812 and became the first and only Prime Minister to have been assassinated.
Members of the Cabinet are in bold face.
