rdf:langString The Australian Labor Party (Victorian Branch), commonly known as Victorian Labor, is the semi-autonomous Victorian branch of the Australian Labor Party (ALP). The Victorian branch comprises two major wings: the parliamentary wing and the organisational wing. The parliamentary wing comprising all elected party members in the Legislative Assembly and Legislative Council, which when they meet collectively constitute the party caucus. The parliamentary leader is elected from and by the caucus, and party factions have a strong influence in the election of the leader. The leader's position is dependent on the continuing support of the caucus (and party factions) and the leader may be deposed by failing to win a vote of confidence of parliamentary members. By convention, the premier sits in the Legislative Assembly, and is the leader of the party controlling a majority in that house. The party leader also typically is a member of the Assembly, though this is not a strict party constitutional requirement. When the Labor party wins sufficient seats to be able to control a majority in the Legislative Assembly, the party leader becomes the State Premier and Labor will form the government. When the party is not in government, the party leader becomes the Leader of the Opposition. To become a Premier or Opposition Leader, the party leader must be or within a short period of time become a member of the Legislative Assembly. Daniel Andrews has been the leader of the party since 3 December 2010 and Jacinta Allan has been deputy party leader since 25 June 2022. At the 2014 state election, the ALP in Victoria obtained a majority with 47 of the 88 seats in the Legislative Assembly and formed the Government of Victoria. They then increased their share of seats in the Assembly to 55 after the 2018 election. Andrews has been the Premier of Victoria since 4 December 2014 and Allan Deputy Premier since 27 June 2022. The party currently has 18 of the 40 seats in the Legislative Council. The Andrews Ministry comprises 22 ministers.
