Sessions
The 10th Parliament opened on 6 October 1887, following the 1887 general election. It sat for four sessions, and was prorogued on 3 October 1890.[1]
| Session | Opened | Adjouned |
|---|---|---|
| first | 6 October 1887 | 23 December 1887 |
| second | 10 May 1888 | 30 August 1888 |
| third | 20 June 1889 | 17 September 1889 |
| fourth | 19 June 1890 | 17 September 1890 |
Historical context
Political parties had not been established yet; this only happened after the 1890 election. Anyone attempting to form an administration thus had to win support directly from individual MPs. This made first forming, and then retaining a government difficult and challenging.[2]
Ministries
The second Stout-Vogel Ministry had been in power since 3 September 1884 until 8 October 1887, just after the 1887 general election to determine the composition of the 10th Parliament. The fourth Atkinson Ministry, known as the Scarecrow Ministry, lasted for the remainder of the term until 24 January 1891.[3][4]
Initial composition of the 10th Parliament
95 seats were created across the electorates.[5]
