The fifth[b] government of Francisco Franco was formed on 25 February 1957.[3] It succeeded the fourth Franco government and was the Government of Spain from 25 February 1957 to 11 July 1962, a total of 1,962 days, or 5 years, 4 months and 16 days.
Franco's fifth cabinet was made up of members from the different factions or "families" within the National Movement: mainly the FET y de las JONS party—the only legal political party during the Francoist regime—the military, the National Catholic Association of Propagandists (ACNP) and a number of aligned-nonpartisan figures from the civil service; however for the first time, the cabinet would see the incorporation of several technocratic ministers from the Opus Dei.[4][5] The new government saw the establishment for the first time of a Ministry of Housing.[6][7]
