History
editUpon his assumption to office, Linares charged all ministerial portfolios to Ruperto Fernández as secretary general pending the formation of a proper ministerial cabinet.[3] A full council of ministers was appointed on 9 December 1857, three months later, composed of four ministers. In this cabinet, a new ministry, the Ministry of Development, was established.[4]
Two future presidents, José María de Achá (1861–1864) and Tomás Frías (1872–1873; 1874–1876) were members of this cabinet.
