The third government of Esperanza Aguirre was formed on 17 June 2011, following her election as President of the Community of Madrid by the Assembly of Madrid on 15 June and her swearing-in on the next day, as a result of the People's Party (PP) emerging as the largest parliamentary force at the 2011 Madrilenian regional election with a third straight absolute majority of seats.[1] [2] It succeeded the second Aguirre government and was the Government of the Community of Madrid from 17 June 2011 to 28 September 2012, a total of days.
The cabinet comprised only members of the PP.[3] It was automatically dismissed on 27 September 2012 when Aguirre resigned as president, but remained in acting capacity until the next government was sworn in.
