The Attal government (French: gouvernement Attal) is the forty-fourth and most recent government of the French Fifth Republic, formed on 9 January 2024 and headed by Gabriel Attal as Prime Minister under the presidency of Emmanuel Macron.^[1]

The Attal cabinet is a three-party minority government as a result of the 2022 legislative election that left the governing coalition short of an absolute majority in Parliament. Following President Macron's decision to dissolve the National Assembly on 9 June 2024, the Attal government continued as a caretaker government. Following the second round of the legislative election, Attal announced his intent to submit his resignation to Macron on 8 July.^[2] However, the resignation would be refused by Macron, who asked Attal to remain at least temporarily Prime Minister in order to help preserve stability.^[3][4]
