Opposition parties wait for cabinet invitation, but disputes persist

NRC·24 September · 18:00·1 hour ago

Opposition leaders are anxious about receiving invitations from the minority coalition government to discuss budgets, as D66 Premier Rob Jetten has not yet invited BBB leader Henk Vermeer due to his support for a PVV motion of no confidence. While six other opposition leaders have been invited to meet with Jetten and VVD Finance Minister Eelco Heinen, Vermeer remains excluded, creating uncertainty because the VVD lacks sufficient support in the Senate without BBB’s 11 seats. Coalition partners D66 and VVD are reportedly still arguing over strategy, delaying formal negotiations before the General Financial Debates begin on October 7.
