The first government lasted from June 28 1917[1] until August 13 when the Mala Rada accepted the resignation of V.Vynnychenko.
[2] Most ministers later were imprisoned by the Soviet regime, the rest managed to survive abroad.
The last three portfolios of the First Secretariat were added on July 13, three more (Trade/Industry, Labor, and Russian Affairs) assigned to Bolsheviks were never filled due to boycott.
Secretary of Nationalities was expanded by the request of the Provisional Government as the minority representatives to Undersecretaries of ethnic affairs (deputies) and soon on July 17 Yefremov was replaced by Oleksander Shulhyn.
After the Secretariat was reorganized as the Council of Ministers the deputy-secretaries received their own ministerial assignments.
