Finance experts, including the president of the Dutch central bank, have been invited for talks with the negotiator putting together a new coalition government, the Telegraaf reports on Wednesday.
The paper says Coen Teulings of the government's macro-economic policy unit, caretaker finance minister Jan Kees de Jager and the central bank's Nout Wellink will meet Uri Rosenthal on Wednesday morning.
They will be ask to detail the difficult financial and economic situation facing the Netherlands, which queen Beatrix referred to when she appointed Rosenthal to the job. The negotiator is looking to put together a right-wing coalition made up of the VVD, anti-Islam PVV and CDA. The VVD emerged as the biggest party in last week's general election by just one seat and the PVV made the most gains.
Support for the CDA almost halved. But Wilders needs to get Verhagenfrom the Christian Democrats on board if he is to be in government. The other parties have all ruled out a coalition with the PVV which wants an end to non-western immigration and a ban on the Koran.For more: DutchNews.nl - Finance experts join coalition talks; Wilders, Rutte keep mum
