Hawke was appointed Minister for Labour and Industrial Relations in the Keating Government in December 1991, replacing the retiring Senator John Button. Keating needed a new minister to replace Button, who was retiring after fourteen years in the ministry. Hawke had only been an MP for two years at that time; he was one of several new MPs who were promoted into important portfolios when Keating took power. Hawke had previously been considered something of an "accessory" to Button; he had few ministerial responsibilities at that time, and his portfolio was never raised in parliament. Hawke's appointment was supported by the major media outlets.
