The seventh[b] government of Francisco Franco was formed on 8 July 1965.[3] It succeeded the sixth Franco government and was the Government of Spain from 8 July 1965 to 30 October 1969, a total of 1,575 days, or 4 years, 3 months and 22 days.
Franco's seventh 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 Opus Dei and the National Catholic Association of Propagandists (ACNP), as well as a number of aligned-nonpartisan technocrats or figures from the civil service.[4][5] The cabinet would see an extensive reshuffle in October 1969 as a result of internal divisions between the various factions within the Movement and the unveiling of the Matesa scandal earlier that year.[6][7] During the cabinet's tenure the Organic Law of the State would be passed in 1967, regulating key aspects of the structuring and functioning of the government.[8]
