== History ==
Unlike other ministries, the Ministry of Industry was not established in the Followerspar Era but was established in February 2020 during the Second Republic. It was eventually expanded in responsibilities becoming the Ministry of Industry and Commerce most likely on 3 August 2020. Following the Siernuke it was swiftly re-established identically on 9 December 2020.
On 21 May 2022, the Ministerial powers bill v2 would be passed dissolving the Ministry of Industry and Commerce and transferring its former responsibilities to the Ministry of Infrastructure & Energy which would be reformed creating the Ministry of Infrastructure, Industry, Labour & Commerce. The changes would be implemented on 30 May 2022 to coincide with the formation of the 77th Government.
