'''First Secretary of State''' is an [[title of honor|honorific]] title occasionally used within the [[Government of the United Kingdom]]. The title, which implies seniority over all other [[Secretary of State (United Kingdom)|Secretaries of State]],<ref>{{cite news |url=http://www.theguardian.com/politics/2015/may/08/george-osborne-made-first-secretary-of-state-in-cabinet-reshuffle|title=George Osborne made first secretary of state in cabinet reshuffle|date=8 May 2015 |author=Nicholas Watt|newspaper=[[The Guardian]] |access-date=8 May 2015 }}</ref> has no specific powers or authority attached to it beyond that of any other Secretary of State.

The title is not always in use, so there have sometimes been extended gaps between successive holders of the title, the most lengthy of which being the 25 years between 1970 and 1995. The last holder was [[George Osborne]], having held the post from May 2015 until July 2016.

==Relationship with Deputy Prime Minister==
The post of [[Deputy Prime Minister of the United Kingdom|Deputy Prime Minister]] had been created in 1942 for [[Clement Attlee]], the leader of the Labour Party in [[Winston Churchill]]'s [[Churchill war ministry|wartime coalition ministry]]. The post indicated that the holder ranked second in government, after the Prime Minister, but did not confer cabinet rank and did not pay a salary. For this reason, the Deputy Prime Minister concurrently held other offices, entitling him to a place in cabinet.

The title ''First Secretary of State'' indicated the holder's rank as a Secretary of State, with a place in cabinet. The title was created in 1962 for Deputy Prime Minister [[Rab Butler|R. A. Butler]], granting him a place in cabinet despite not holding a specific cabinet portfolio. [[Michael Heseltine]] and [[John Prescott]] were also relieved of their cabinet portfolios when serving as Deputy Prime Minister, and were therefore additionally appointed First Secretary of State. In 1964, Prime Minister [[Harold Wilson]] established the alternative usage, appointing a First Secretary of State among the cabinet without appointing a Deputy Prime Minister.

The two titles have only existed concurrently with different holders in one government: in [[David Cameron]]'s [[First Cameron ministry|coalition ministry of 2010–15]], [[Nick Clegg]], the leader of the [[Liberal Democrats]], was appointed Deputy Prime Minister, and [[William Hague]] was appointed First Secretary of State.

==Most recent holder==
The most recent First Secretary of State was [[George Osborne]], who first received the title from Prime Minister [[David Cameron]] in addition to his reappointment as Chancellor of the Exchequer<ref>{{cite web|url=https://www.gov.uk/government/ministers/first-secretary-of-state|title=First Secretary of State|work=www.gov.uk}}</ref> immediately following the [[2015 General Election]], and held it until he left cabinet in July 2016.

'''First Secretary of State''' is an [[title of honor|honorific]] title occasionally used within the [[Government of the United Kingdom]]. The title, which implies seniority over all other [[Secretary of State (United Kingdom)|Secretaries of State]],<ref>{{cite news |url=http://www.theguardian.com/politics/2015/may/08/george-osborne-made-first-secretary-of-state-in-cabinet-reshuffle|title=George Osborne made first secretary of state in cabinet reshuffle|date=8 May 2015 |author=Nicholas Watt|newspaper=[[The Guardian]] |access-date=8 May 2015 }}</ref> has no specific powers or authority attached to it beyond that of any other Secretary of State.

The title is not always in use, and there have been lengthy periods between successive holders of the title.

==Relationship with Deputy Prime Minister==
The post of [[Deputy Prime Minister of the United Kingdom|Deputy Prime Minister]] had been created in 1942 for [[Clement Attlee]], the leader of the Labour Party in [[Winston Churchill]]'s [[Churchill war ministry|wartime coalition ministry]]. The post indicated that the holder ranked second in government, after the Prime Minister, but did not confer cabinet rank and did not pay a salary. For this reason, the Deputy Prime Minister concurrently held other offices, entitling him to a place in cabinet.

The title ''First Secretary of State'' indicated the holder's rank as a Secretary of State, with a place in cabinet. The title was created in 1962 for Deputy Prime Minister [[Rab Butler|R. A. Butler]], granting him a place in cabinet despite not holding a specific cabinet portfolio. [[Michael Heseltine]] and [[John Prescott]] were also relieved of their cabinet portfolios when serving as Deputy Prime Minister, and were therefore additionally appointed First Secretary of State. In 1964, Prime Minister [[Harold Wilson]] established the alternative usage, appointing a First Secretary of State among the cabinet without appointing a Deputy Prime Minister.

The two titles have only existed concurrently with different holders in one government: in [[David Cameron]]'s [[First Cameron ministry|coalition ministry of 2010–15]], [[Nick Clegg]], the leader of the [[Liberal Democrats]], was appointed Deputy Prime Minister, and [[William Hague]] was appointed First Secretary of State.

==Current holder==
The current First Secretary of State is [[George Osborne]], who first received the title from Prime Minister [[David Cameron]] in addition to his reappointment as Chancellor of the Exchequer<ref>{{cite web|url=https://www.gov.uk/government/ministers/first-secretary-of-state|title=First Secretary of State|work=www.gov.uk}}</ref> immediately following the [[2015 General Election]].

'''First Secretary of State''' is an [[title of honor|honorific]] title occasionally used within the [[Government of the United Kingdom]]. The title, which implies seniority over all other [[Secretary of State (United Kingdom)|Secretaries of State]],<ref>{{cite news |url=http://www.theguardian.com/politics/2015/may/08/george-osborne-made-first-secretary-of-state-in-cabinet-reshuffle|title=George Osborne made first secretary of state in cabinet reshuffle|date=8 May 2015 |author=Nicholas Watt|newspaper=[[The Guardian]] |access-date=8 May 2015 }}</ref> has no specific powers or authority attached to it beyond that of any other Secretary of State.

The title is not always in use, and there have been lengthy periods between successive holders of the title.

==Relationship with Deputy Prime Minister==
The post of [[Deputy Prime Minister of the United Kingdom|Deputy Prime Minister]] had been created in 1942 for [[Clement Attlee]], the leader of the Labour Party in [[Winston Churchill]]'s [[Churchill war ministry|wartime coalition ministry]]. The post indicated that the holder ranked second in government, after the Prime Minister, but did not confer cabinet rank. For this reason, the Deputy Prime Minister concurrently held other offices, entitling him to a place in cabinet.

The title ''First Secretary of State'' indicated the holder's rank as a Secretary of State, with a place in cabinet. The title was created in 1963 for Deputy Prime Minister [[Rab Butler|R. A. Butler]], granting him a place in cabinet despite not holding a specific cabinet portfolio. [[Michael Heseltine]] and [[John Prescott]] were also relieved of their cabinet portfolios when appointed Deputy Prime Minister, and were therefore additionally appointed First Secretary of State. However, some Labour governments appointed a First Secretary of State without appointing a Deputy Prime Minister.

The two titles have only existed concurrently with different holders in one government: in [[David Cameron]]'s [[First Cameron ministry|coalition ministry of 2010–15]], [[Nick Clegg]], the leader of the [[Liberal Democrats]], was appointed Deputy Prime Minister, and [[William Hague]] was appointed First Secretary of State.

==Current holder==
The current First Secretary of State is [[George Osborne]], who first received the title from Prime Minister [[David Cameron]] in addition to his reappointment as Chancellor of the Exchequer<ref>{{cite web|url=https://www.gov.uk/government/ministers/first-secretary-of-state|title=First Secretary of State|work=www.gov.uk}}</ref> immediately following the [[2015 General Election]].

The '''Home Front Defense Ministry''' is a ministry in the [[Cabinet of Israel|Israeli government]]. The current minister is [[Avi Dichter]].<ref name="mfa" /> The post was created for [[Matan Vilnai]] by Prime Minister [[Benjamin Netanyahu]] on January 19, 2011. At the time, Netanyahu explained his reasoning for the establishment of the new ministry:<ref name="women" />
{{quote|Today, I would also like to appoint our friend Matan Vilnai as Home Front Defense Minister. I would also like to make it clear that we are talking bout [sic] establishing a separate ministry – a unique experiment – that will deal with the defense of the home front. This is the case in several other countries, the US for example, even though none of these countries have been hit by 12,000 missiles like we have and there are no such threats hanging over them. They have separate ministries for home front defense, how much more so should Israel, which needs a minister to deal with the issue in a separate and focused manner.}}

During 2007–2011, [[Matan Vilnai]] has been effectively in charge of Home Front coordination in his capacity as Deputy Minister of Defense under [[Ehud Barak]]. However, this authority had been delegated on a personal basis and might have well expired upon either of the men leaving office.
