Cabinet of Andrej Plenković I
The Fourteenth Government of the Republic of Croatia () was the Croatian Government cabinet formed on 19 October 2016, following the 2016 election. It was led by Prime Minister Andrej Plenković. The cabinet was dissolved on 23 July 2020 and was succeeded by a new government presided over by Plenković. Overview. When naming the members of his own cabinet Plenković chose to retain eight ministers from the then outgoing Orešković cabinet: The cabinet was originally constituted by a coalition agreement between the Croatian Democratic Union (HDZ) and Bridge of Independent Lists (Most) and was voted into  office by the Croatian Parliament on 19 October 2016, being approved by 91 out of 151 Members of Parliament. In April 2017, however, disagreements between HDZ and MOST over the ongoing crisis involving Agrokor and the role of Finance minister Zdravko Marić in possibly being able to avert the crisis led to the collapse of the coalition and Most's four cabinet ministers (Ivan Kovačić, Vlaho Orepić, Slaven Dobrović and Ante Šprlje) being removed from their posts by Prime Minister Plenković. On 9 June 2017 HDZ agreed on a coalition with the centrist Croatian People's Party-Liberal Democrats (HNS ), and a cabinet reshuffle took place, with HNS being given two ministries in the cabinet. However, only 5 of HNS' 9 MPs agreed to support the new coalition, leading to a split within the party and the expulsion of the four rebellious MPs from HNS. The new make-up of the cabinet was approved on the same day by a majority of 78 out of 151 Members of the Croatian Parliament. Following the reshuffle of 9 June 2017, two ministers from the previous make-up were given new portfolios: According to a regular monthly survey of political preferences conducted by  Ipsos agency in November 2017, 74% of respondents thought Croatia was moving in a wrong direction, while 20% though opposite. The level of pessimism was highest since the approval of Plenković's cabinet a year earlier. According to the same survey, Government's policies were not supported by 62% of respondents, opposite to 29% who thought differently. Party breakdown. Party breakdown of cabinet ministers:
