Kuwait has postponed convening the first parliament session after elections to October 18, the state news agency reported on Saturday.
The Gulf state's crown prince re-appointed Sheikh Ahmad Nawaf al-Sabah, the ruling emir's son, as prime minister on Wednesday and later approved a new Cabinet following legislative polls.
A domestic political feud has stalled reforms in the Gulf state.
The government has not taken the constitutional oath because of the objection of more than 40 members of parliament.
Local media said ministers of the old cabinet had resigned.
Political stability in Kuwait has traditionally depended on cooperation between the government and parliament, the Gulf region's most lively legislature. Kuwait bans political parties but has given its legislature more influence than in other Gulf monarchies.
Stalemates between Kuwait's government and parliament have often led to cabinet reshuffles and dissolutions of the legislature over the decades, hampering investment and reforms.
