The Second Carnell Ministry was the sixth ministry of the Government of the Australian Capital Territory, and was led by Liberal Chief Minister Kate Carnell and her deputy, Gary Humphries.
The ministry operated until 9 October 2000, when Carnell resigned as chief minister after being informed by key independent members, Paul Osborne and Dave Rugendyke, that they would no longer support her leadership due to her handling of the Bruce Stadium affair.
Deputy Chief Minister Humphries was sworn in as her replacement, and Carnell subsequently left politics.
On 31 March 1998, one month after the initial ministry was sworn in, veteran independent member, Michael Moore, was appointed minister.
A further change occurred on 7 August 1999,[3] when Carnell divested the position of Treasurer to her deputy, Humphries, in response to mounting pressure due to her handling of the Bruce Stadium affair.
