On Tuesday, Sheikh Nawaf issued a decree approving the line-up of the new 15-member cabinet.
According to the line-up, the ministers of defence, foreign affairs, oil, education, endowments and communications and information technology remained in their positions, while nine new ministers were picked, including the portfolios of finance, interior affairs, health and trade and industry.
Last month, the Kuwaiti government resigned amid a row with opposition lawmakers.
