Australia has never had a Prime Minister named Michael Fraser.

Malcolm Fraser, on the other hand, became the caretaker Prime Minister on 11 November 1975 after the sacking of then-PM Gough Whitlam by Governor General, Sir John Kerr. Malcolm Fraser was then officially elected as Australia's Prime Minister at the election held on 13 December 1975.
