Second Philp ministry

The Second Philp Ministry was the 24th ministry of the Government of Queensland and was led by Premier Robert Philp, who led the Conservative party. It succeeded the Second Kidston ministry on 19 November 1907 following Kidston's resignation on 12 November 1907.

At the 5 February 1908 election, the Conservative party lost seven Assembly seats including those of two of the ministers (Leahy and Stephens), and on 14 February Philp resigned. The Ministry formally concluded on 18 February 1908, and was succeeded by the Second Kidston ministry.
