The shadow ministry of Matthew Guy was the Coalition opposition, opposing the Andrews government in the Parliament of Victoria, Australia. Matthew Guy held the position of opposition leader twice, first from 4 December 2014 until 6 December 2018, following his loss in the 2018 Victorian state election, and then again from 7 September 2021 until 8 December 2022 when he defeated his successor, Michael O'Brien in a leadership spill. [1] [2] The shadow cabinet was made up of the caucuses from the Liberal Party and Nationals.
The shadow ministry was replaced by the shadow ministry of John Pesutto after Pesutto succeeded Guy as Liberal Party leader in December 2022.
A reshuffle of the shadow ministry was announced on 25 February 2022, with the reinstatement of former Leader of the Opposition Michael O'Brien to the frontbench. [3] [4] He was appointed to role of the shadow attorney-general, replacing Matthew Bach.
