The shadow ministry of Sussan Ley is the incoming shadow cabinet of Australia, serving in opposition to the Albanese government. The shadow ministry is the Opposition's alternative to the Albanese ministry, which was sworn in on 13 May 2025. [1]

Contents

The shadow ministry will be appointed by Sussan Ley following her election as Leader of the Liberal Party and Leader of the Opposition also on 13 May 2025. [2]

The National Party was the Liberal Party's coalition partner until the election, and re-elected its party leader David Littleproud on 12 May 2025 after the election. Littleproud and senior Nationals members announced on 20 May 2025 that their party would break away from the Coalition and would not be part of the shadow ministry.

The full arrangement will be announced by Ley at a later date.
