History
On 17 November 1917 Georges Clemenceau created the Ministry of Blockade, which was also responsible for the liberated regions. The first minister was Charler-Célestin Jonnart, replaced on 23 November 1917 by Albert François Lebrun. Lebrun took responsibility for the liberated regions, while M. Delavaud took responsibility for the blockade.[1] Émile Ogier, a career civil servant, was minister from January 1920 until Louis Loucheur took over.[2] Louis Marin (politician) was Minister from 29 March 1924 to 14 June 1924 in the third cabinet of Raymond Poincaré and the ephemeral cabinet of Frédéric François-Marsal.[3]
