The First Adrian Hasler cabinet was the governing body of Liechtenstein from 27 March 2013 to 30 March 2017. It was appointed by Alois, Hereditary Prince of Liechtenstein and was chaired by Adrian Hasler.
History
[edit]In the 2013 Liechtenstein general election the Progressive Citizens' Party emerged as the largest party.[1] As a result, the Klaus Tschütscher cabinet was dissolved with Adrian Hasler succeeding Klaus Tschütscher as Prime Minister of Liechtenstein.[2][3] The Independents, formed the same year, became an opposition party to the cabinet, making it the first cabinet two hold two opposition parties, along with the Free List.[1]
During the government's term, it worked on restructuring Liechtenstein's state budget.[4] The cabinet continued and expanded the tax cooperation agreements that had been done by its predecessors following the 2008 Liechtenstein tax affair, signing tax agreements with numerous countries, such as Italy and Austria.[4][5]
In addition, the government was responsible for the establishment of an asylum task force, and then an amendment to the Liechtenstein asylum law in response to the 2015 European migrant crisis.[6]
In the 2017 Liechtenstein general election the Progressive Citizens' Party lost a seat but remained narrowly the largest party.[7] As a result, the government was dissolved and succeeded by the Second Adrian Hasler cabinet.[3][8]
