On Thursday evening, the group chairmen came to Finance, where the talks lasted for five hours. ,,We are a bit further, but not finished yet. We need a little longer,” Prime Minister Mark Rutte said afterwards. The talks will therefore continue next week, but ‘I don’t know whether we will continue with this composition,’ said Rutte. “But further consultations are taking place.”
Those involved said that the coalition parties wanted to submit all their wishes to the cabinet this week. Next week, Minister of Finance Sigrid Kaag would start working on this. It is not yet clear what the plan is.
