This is a list of the principal holders of government office during the second premiership of the Marquess of Rockingham for four months in 1782.
The North ministry resigned on 22 March 1782 after losing the confidence of Parliament following the British defeat at the siege of Yorktown during the American War of Independence.
Whig Lord Rockingham, Prime Minister from 1765 to 1766, formed a government.
The Home Secretary Lord Shelburne was appointed to succeed him, but several members of the government refused to serve under him and resigned.
These "Portland Whigs" (named after their nominal leader, the Duke of Portland, but in reality led by Charles James Fox) allied in opposition with Lord North and brought down the Shelburne ministry in 1783.
