The government is formed from the largest party or coalition of parties in the House of Representatives, following a federal election. Even though government is formed in the House of Representatives, members of the government also belong to the Senate. The current government consists of a total of 115 members; 83 in the House of Representatives and 32 in the Senate. The current government is made up of members of the Australian Labor Party (ALP).

Following a federal election, the government is formed by the party (or coalition) with the support of the majority of members (at least 76) in the House of Representatives. Even though government is formed in the House of Representatives, many elected Senators are also government members. The current government in the House of Representatives is a minority government made up of the Australian Labor Party (72) with the support of one member of the Australian Greens and three Independents.
